St Giles Family Courses

Job Description

Reviewed by Helen Gray, December 2025

Centre Manager
(Residential)

For over 70 years, St Giles has been dedicated to delivering exceptional English language

learning experiences. Everything we do begins and ends with our students: from the

moment our young learners arrive, our teams work to ensure they are engaged,

supported, and having the educational experience of a lifetime. St Giles Juniors welcomes

students from over 50 countries and is recognised as a leading provider of high-quality,

culturally enriching summer programmes. Our residential Junior courses cater for learners

aged 8–17, and our Family courses welcome children from 5–15, depending on location.

Every member of staff is an ambassador for our ethos: placing student experience at the

centre, upholding our high standards, and contributing positively to the shared mission of

delivering an unforgettable summer.

Our aim is to create a safe, supervised environment where young people can learn, grow,

and connect across cultures. We only recruit staff who are committed to putting student

welfare first and who bring the energy, adaptability and professionalism needed to help us

deliver the very best junior courses. The work is fast-paced and demanding, but it’s also

deeply rewarding—fuelled by teamwork, shared purpose, and the satisfaction of making a

real impact on students’ lives.

Working with us isn’t just a summer job—it’s a chance to grow. You’ll leave with valuable

transferable skills in leadership, communication, problem-solving, safeguarding, and

cross-cultural teamwork. The experience is a strong foundation for careers in teaching,

education, youth work, management, events, tourism and more. We value our returning

staff with bonuses and development opportunities, and we foster a community where

people build confidence, networks and friendships. Expect responsibility, challenge, and

plenty of fun—plus references and experience that genuinely open doors.

For experienced managers, our programmes offer the chance to lead diverse teams, run

complex operations, and uphold high standards in a fast-moving, multicultural

environment. You’ll shape your centre’s culture, influence student experience on a large

scale, and strengthen strategic decision-making under real-world pressure. Many

managers return year after year, progressing into senior seasonal or year-round roles. It’s

a role that builds resilience, credibility, and a leadership track record that stands out in

any career.
