Activities Organiser in Tunbridge Wells
Cicero organises social activities and outings for its young learner (16-18) and adult (16+) foreign students in Tunbridge Wells during the summer season (3rd July to 14th August 2011). These activities include sightseeing trips to London, pub and restaurant evenings, barbecues, sports activities, outings to places of interest in the area and other activities and excursions.
Duties
The activities organiser is responsible for planning the programme of activities, preparing any information required for sightseeing or visits, preparing information about the programme for the students, talking to the students to find out what they would like to do, booking venues and taxis, purchasing tickets and accompanying students on their activities.
The post also includes organising airport transfers for young learner students booked on our package courses. This involves collating flight information and booking taxis and / or minibuses. You may also be required to travel to London Heathrow to help with collecting and checking the students in.
This is a part-time post, but the position can easily be for 25 or 30 hours per week.
Day trips take place on Saturdays; other activities are usually in the afternoons and evenings during the week. Airport transfers are on Sundays.
Requirements
You’ll need an interest in working with people from different countries and backgrounds as the job involves making their stay in England interesting by showing them something of its culture, history and customs. A warm and friendly manner, good organisational skills and attention to detail are also necessary.
As some students are under 18 years of age, we are required to carry out a police check on all members of staff.
Please note:
- We follow up references
- We will ask you to explain any gaps in your CV
- We have to ask for proof of identity
- CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) disclosure may be required before appointment
