Full job description

LEAD / SITE LEAD INSTRUCTOR

Pay: £16.00 p/h (Lead Instructor) / £17.00 p/h (Site Lead)

Contract: Self‑employed initially, with opportunity to move onto PAYE

Location: Brighton & Hove

Start: ASAP (flexible)

A unique opportunity to lead outdoor adventure sessions all year round

The Outdoors Project Brighton & Hove is looking for an experienced, confident Lead Instructor to take charge of one of our busy Holiday Club sites. This is a fantastic chance to step into a role where you’re not just delivering sessions — you’re running the show, shaping the day, leading a team, and creating unforgettable outdoor experiences for children aged 5–11.

Unlike many outdoor activity roles, this isn’t just seasonal work. We’re offering consistent, year‑round opportunities across holiday clubs, after‑school clubs, parties and more.

What we do

Our sessions are 100% outdoors and packed with adventure:

Bushcraft & fire lighting
Shelter building
Nerf battles
Survival skills
Nature themes
Games inspired by kids’ favourite worlds (Harry Potter, Pokémon, Minecraft, etc.)
And above all… FUN!

What we’re looking for

We need someone who can step in and lead immediately — someone who’s run groups, managed staff, or overseen activity sessions before. You’ll be responsible for the smooth running of a holiday club site, and after school club, ensuring children are safe, engaged, and having the best time possible.

Essential qualities

Leadership experience — ideally in outdoor activities, childcare, education, sports coaching, or similar
Confident running groups of primary‑aged children
Ability to manage a small team and keep a site running smoothly
Reliability and strong communication
A love of the outdoors — we’re outside in all weathers
Enthusiasm, positivity and a sense of fun

Desirable (but not essential)

Paediatric Level 3 First Aid Qualification.
Enhanced DBS on the update service.
Level 1 or higher safeguarding course.

Hours & opportunities

This role centres around Holiday Clubs and After School Clubs, but we also offer:

Weekend birthday parties
Additional seasonal and year‑round work including workshops.

We’re building a team of people who want to grow with us as we expand, and are available throughout the year.

What it’s like to work with us

Our team includes teachers, TAs, outdoor instructors, creatives, students, and even former club attendees now working with us. We value personality, passion and playfulness as much as qualifications.

How to apply

Please send your CV and a short cover note explaining:

Your relevant experience
Why you’d make a great Lead Instructor
And most importantly… who your favourite cartoon character is (we take fun seriously)

About The Outdoors Project
