About Us

The Windermere Valley Youth Centre Society is a safe and inclusive space where youth can be themselves, connect with others, and access support. From free food and mental health programs to open gym nights and drop-in hangs, we’re here to uplift youth in every way we can. Our team is made up of compassionate, creative, and energetic people—and we’re looking for more!

About the Role

Do you love music, baking, skateboarding, sports, art, tech—or something else awesome? We’re looking for a Vibe Curator (aka activity leader) who wants to share what they love with youth ages 12–18. This is more than a job; it’s all about creating the right atmosphere. A "Vibe Curator" isn't just leading activities; they're setting the mood, making sure everyone feels comfortable, and fostering a chill environment where teens want to hang out.

Think: the positive energy of a summer camp counsellor meets the compassion and empathy of a youth worker.

Key Responsibilities

- Plan and lead engaging, interest-based activities (what you're passionate about—we want that!)
- Build strong, respectful, and supportive relationships with youth
- Help maintain a clean, safe, inclusive, and welcoming workplace
- Assist with daily drop-in supervision and snack prep
- Support special events, workshops, and fundraisers as needed
- Be a positive role model for youth
- Communicate openly with the Executive Director about successes, concerns,



and ideas

What We’re Looking For

- A love for working with youth—and they can feel it
- Experience leading activities or working in youth-related settings (camp, coaching, tutoring, etc.)
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills
- Reliability, creativity, and adaptability
- Ability to set boundaries with empathy and kindness
- Willingness to get involved and be silly, curious, or vulnerable—it goes a long way with youth
- Criminal Record Check with Vulnerable Sector Screening (we’ll help you with this)

Bonus points if you:

- Have First Aid/CPR, Mental Health First Aid, ASIST
- Have food safe
- Have background in education, youth work, social work, recreation
