Experience in after-school programming, education, childcare leadership, camps, recreation, youth programming, or team management is a plus—butleadership, initiative, organization, and judgment matter enormously to us.

WHAT YOU’LL OWN

You’ll lead the daily BEST Kids experience, including staff preparation and accountability, student arrival and dismissal, activities and transitions, behavior support, family communication, transportation operations, safety, organization, and overall program quality.

Our goal is simple:

Create an after-school experience families LOVE—and a program that operates with excellence every single day.
