Fun Science runs hands-on scientific holiday clubs for children aged 4-10 in Southdown, Bath. We are looking for an enthusiastic individual to join our team and assist with the children, helping them with their activities, ensuring their wellbeing is taken care of and helping with general tasks such as setting up and clearing up activities.

Activities may include rocket building, slime making, conducting simple experiments and much more. The successful candidate would be enthusiastic, energetic and have a passion for working with primary aged children. We will expect you to be self motivated – able to spot what needs doing and do it without needing to be asked.

You would attend a trial shift at our Christmas Holiday Club on either the 20th or 21st December (at the usual rate of pay) and then following a successful trial shift, your hours will be 9.45am – 3.15pm on the following dates (with the potential for future work too):

February 2024 – 13th, 14th and 15th

April 2024 – 9th, 10th and 11th

May 2024 – 29th, 30th and 31st

If you have children over the age of 5, you may be able to bring them with you subject to discussion and prior approval. The ability to pass an enhanced DBS check and experience working with children in the target age range is essential. You must not apply for this job if you are on the barred list or have been disqualified from working with children.

Providing false information is an offence and could result in the application being rejected or summary dismissal if the applicant has been selected, and referral to the police and/or the DBS.
