Current Employment Opportunities

Due to COVID-19 we have a reduced program plan for the summer of 2021. Therefore, there are only four positions available this summer: Children’s Camp Coordinator, Children’s Camp Counsellor (X2) and a Fundraising Assistant.

We are seeking staff in the Barrie, Oro Medonte, Orillia and Toronto areas to run children’s programs. And a fundraising assistant who can work remotely.

The majority of our programs happen within the summer months of July and August where we typically host multiple Youth Mission Projects and Children’s Programs regionally. With the current COVID19 public health crisis, our programming has taken a shift to offer resources and training to communities of faith, virtual program offerings, and are hoping to run small in-person day camps this coming summer (2021)

For summer 2021, there is a possibility of in-person and virtual camp. Please be open to offering both, or either, within this role.

To Apply  

Please submit both your resume and cover letter to the Minister of The GO Project Alana Martin at Alana@thegoproject.ca by May 21st, 2021 .
