Original job description

Company Description Galileo Learning’s mission is to develop innovators who envision and create a better world. We provide out-of-school enrichment programs that build innovation skills, growth mindset, and creative confidence across a variety of offerings. We run neighborhood summer day camps for families, deliver expanded learning programs for school districts, and empower educational institutions and service providers with curriculum and instructional support. We bring our mission to life through the Galileo Innovation Approach (GIA): combining mindset, process, and knowledge to drive meaningful outcomes for students and for each other. This shows up in how we collaborate, make decisions, and continuously improve our work.

We are:

Visionary: We think beyond what exists today and work toward what’s possible.
Courageous: We take ownership, make decisions with imperfect information, and lean into challenges.
Collaborative: We work across teams and perspectives, assuming positive intent and building strong partnerships.
Determined: We follow through, hold a high bar for quality, and stay focused on delivering results that matter for our students and partners.
Reflective: We learn from experience, use data and feedback to improve, and continuously evolve how we work.

We operate with a high level of ownership and care for our work, our partners, and each other.

Job Description

Galileo is looking for an experienced leader to join our team as a Camp Director. Camp Directors lead our dynamic summer camps for K–8th grade, serving as both site General Manager and the public face of the organization.

You will open and operate a Camp Galileo location serving campers and their families within your community! You will lead a dynamic seasonal team of educators as well as enthusiastic entry-level staff to create joyful, safe environments and ensure smooth daily operations. With a focus on exceptional camper and family experiences, you will uphold program quality, foster creativity, and deliver excellence in customer care, curriculum, and team leadership.

Why This Role Matters

Galileo started in 2002 with a single summer camp in Palo Alto, named for Galileo Galilei, one of history’s great innovators. Today we run 90+ sites across eight states, and Camp Directors are still the people who give each camp its own traditions and magic. Our mission is to develop innovators who envision and create a better world, and at camp, you’re the one who makes that real for campers, families, and staff every day.

Build an inclusive environment where every camper, staff member, and family feels seen, supported, and inspired

Leading with Ownership and Vision

Own every aspect of your camp’s launch, from preseason planning through end-of-summer wrap-up
As both operational lead and culture builder, oversee every detail from daily camp operations to parent communication while delivering an exceptional program

Keeping Camp Safe and Running Smoothly

Prioritize camper safety, family trust, and program fidelity at all times
Anticipate needs, adapt quickly, and problem-solve on the fly so camp runs seamlessly, even when things don’t go as planned

Developing and Managing Your Team

Train and mentor a staff of 7 to 40 (depending on site size), including educators and entry-level staff, while actively building your team culture
Provide clear expectations for instructional and program standards, ongoing feedback, and professional development
Own core management responsibilities such as training support, scheduling, payroll, and ongoing performance management

Embracing Challenge and Innovation

Use the Galileo Innovation Approach (GIA) to encourage curiosity and problem-solving
Lead your team in turning challenges into opportunities, keeping both spirit and operations aligned to Galileo’s mission
Communicate openly with your Field Program Manager, seek out feedback, and turn it into action
Take ownership of your own professional development, staying self-motivated to learn, grow, and improve throughout the summer

Building Strong Partnerships

Serve as the primary face of camp within the community
Communicate proactively with families, facilities partners, and cross-functional teams
Collaborate with your Field Program Manager and cultivate trust with community partners, staff, and campers

This phase includes in-person training(s), a Bay Area retreat, scheduled virtual training(s), marketing events, and on-site prep at your camp location during the week leading up to camp. Some events may take place during evenings and weekends.
Phase Two: On-Site (June–August): On-site hours typically range from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM (M-F), up to 50 hours per week over 5–8 weeks, depending on camp placement.

Compensation:

(Year 1 estimate):

Preseason (Feb–June): Earn hourly pay ($22-24/hour) for flexible, part-time prep and training
Camp Season (June–Aug): Transition to a weekly salary ($1,400/week plus an additional $50/week for each year of returning tenure in this role) as a full-time, exempt Camp Director during summer operations
Postseason (Aug–Sept): Wrap up with light part-time work, paid hourly ($22-24/hour)
Bonus/Commission: Earn an additional $1 per camper-week enrollment, plus potential commission for add-on weeks

Exact compensation may vary and will be based on multiple factors, including geography and Galileo camp director tenure. Our pay practices are guided by a commitment to equity and informed by market benchmarking and internal audits to minimize bias and ensure fairness across all roles.

Perks:

Free camp for your child(ren) or two giftable weeks (incl. extended care)
