Empower Staff, Inspire Campers, and Build a Summer That Matters. Kids in the Game provides unforgettable day camp experiences for hundreds of New York children across Manhattan, Brooklyn, the Bronx, and now Westchester & Jersey City! When you join the Kids in the Game summer camp leadership cohort, you’ll be part of a dynamic team of Camp Directors, Assistant Directors and 275+ coaches running outstanding programming at our 13 summer day camps. THE KIDS IN THE GAME SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE Kids in the Game camps are where sports, creativity, and community come together to shape confident, compassionate, and connected kids. Every summer, our camps across New York City, Westchester & Jersey City bring together diverse groups of children to explore new sports, build friendships, develop positive social skills, and learn how to be part of a team. Our camps offer kids a uniquely designed blend of sports and games, arts and crafts, STEM enrichment, field trips, swim activities, theme weeks, and all-camp special events to make every week the highlight of a child's summer. Each day is fueled by energy, laughter, and belonging. Our team of camp leaders, specialists, and counselors create an environment where every child feels seen, supported, and inspired to try something new. We believe camp is more than a summer activity — it’s a place where kids discover who they are and who they can become. As a Certified B Corporation, we're also on a mission to positively impact the lives of all of our stakeholders - campers, families, staff, community members, and our partners. We’re looking for Assistant Directors who want to inspire the next generation of leaders, model and build emotional intelligence, boost kids’ confidence, create tight-knit communities, and bring inclusive camp programs into communities across NYC, Westchester & Jersey City. Your Leadership Can Change the Game — Join Kids in the Game This Summer. OFF SITE & SWIM ASSISTANT DIRECTOR ROLE & KEY TASKS As one of our Off Site & Swim Assistant Directors, you'll report to the Camp Director and work closely with the Admin & Programming Assistant Directors being responsible for facilitating and delivering safe, well-organized, and impactful off-site and swim experiences for campers. This role manages all aspects of the logistics required to travel to nearby parks, swim facilities, and field trip locations (around NY and NJ). This includes: busing to field trips and swim facilities, planning travel and transportation routes, collecting and reviewing permission slips, managing and purchasing tickets, camper and staff supervision during off-site activities and events, maintaining health and safety protocols and managing risk factors, as well as being the point person for vendor communication & relationships. You are actively leading staff in creating a positive culture beyond the camp walls — where trips, outdoor adventures, and swim time are intentional extensions of camp programming, not just a change in scenery. This role is ensuring that every off-site moment still reflects our mission to build confidence, community, and joyful movement through play. We currently have 11 New York based camp locations with the possibility of a Queens camp. The sites and addresses are:Westchester & The Bronx:Westchester-Crestwood - 465 Westchester Ave, Tuckahoe, NY 10707Riverdale - 452 W 260th St, The Bronx, NY 10471Manhattan:Inwood - 532 W 215th St, New York, NY 10034Upper West Side - 147 W 70th St, NY, NY 10023West Village - 272 W 10th St, New York, NY 10014Chelsea - 259 10th Ave, New York, NY 10001Upper East Side (Carnegie Hill)- 980 Park Ave, New York, NY 10028Upper East Side (Lenox Hill) - 132 E 78th St, New York, NY 10075East Village - 215 E 6th St New York, NY 10003Brooklyn:Park Slope - 588 6th St, Brooklyn, NY 11215Greenpoint - 100 Dobbin St, Brooklyn, NY 11222Fort Greene - 39 Adelphi St, Brooklyn, NY 11205 You must be able to arrive by 7:30am daily via public transportation or personal transportation (car) and stay on-site until 5pm daily (and until 5:30pm twice per week to oversee after care activities). The Off Site & Swim Assistant Director’s responsibilities include:Ambassadorship, Core Values & Camp CultureAmbassadorship: As the face of camp beyond the building, you carry our mission into many different community spaces. Your calm presence, organization, and tone during transitions in outside spaces show who we are as a camp—especially during the moments when safety, preparation, and trust matter most. The way you manage travel, expectations, and group readiness communicates to others what it looks like to lead with purpose, joy, and responsibility. You should be prepared to interact with the public and vendors on a daily basis - whether connecting with bus drivers, reaching out to swim and trip vendors to confirm upcoming sessions, or representing our camp community when we’re out in the park and shared public spaces.Camp Culture: Off-site experiences are a powerful culture-driver—they test whether our values hold up when we’re not “on home turf.” You create a sense of belonging on the go: making nervous swimmers feel brave, helping new campers feel included on a trip, and guiding staff to stay engaged and not just supervise, but connect. Whether you're leading a pre-trip huddle, celebrating swim growth, or turning a walk to the park into a team moment, you reinforce that camp culture travels with us everywhere we goAmbitious: You continually look for ways to elevate the experience—more intentional swim trips, smoother bus transitions, stronger safety systems, clearer staff roles, more staff voice and excitement in trip planning. You don’t just “get everyone there.” You make sure the experience feels thoughtful, developmental, and memorable. Positive: Off-site days come with unpredictable moments—weather changes, delays, reroutes, tired campers. Your energy sets the tone. When you stay grounded and optimistic, staff and campers mirror it. Your patience and encouragement help campers try the pool for the first time, visit a place they have never been, or bounce back from small frustrations along the way.Committed: Families trust us most when logistics are tight and safety feels intentional. Your preparation—ratios, documentation, medical needs, backup plans—ensures off-site programming runs smoothly and confidently. Your consistency helps staff know what to expect, which lets them show up better for kids in the moment.Inclusive: You ensure that every camper feels like the swim deck or field trip is for them—not just the kids who are already confident, athletic, or outgoing. You advocate for accommodations, modify expectations when needed, and create space for different comfort levels. You celebrate every "win” and exciting moment.Empathetic: You hold space for the emotions wrapped into off-site days—excitement, nerves, separation worries, sensory overwhelm, first-time swimmers, different ability levels. You lead your staff in seeing the child behind the behavior and responding with care. By protecting emotional safety alongside physical safety, you help kids feel supported enough to try, risk, grow, and come back tomorrow feeling proud of themselves.Safety, Compliance & SupervisionEnsure all park, trip and swim experiences meet Department of Health standards and Kids in the Game safety procedures.Check on park safety daily - landscape, the public around the area, transition routes, required permits. Conduct regular visits during the week to the park to make sure safety standards are being met by the rest of the camp staff.
