Flexible hours to support our Breakfast & After School Clubs

Make a Difference. Have a Blast. Love Your Job.

Do you have the energy of a superhero, the creativity of an artist, and a passion for working with children?

At Junior Adventures Group (JAG), we’re looking for enthusiastic and reliable Casual Playworkers / Activity Leaders to join our team and support our Breakfast & After School Clubs.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking for flexible work, whether you're balancing studies, family commitments, another job, or simply looking for a rewarding role where every day is different.

From football and team games to arts & crafts, creative challenges, and structured play, you'll help create fun, engaging experiences where children aged 4–11 can learn, grow, and have fun.

Working Hours

Our club operates:

Monday to Friday

Breakfast Club: 07:30 – 09:00

After School Club: 15:00 – 18:00

This is a casual role, where you’ll be offered shifts based on the needs of the club, including:

• Staff sickness cover
• Annual leave cover
• Additional support during busier sessions
• Holiday Club opportunities where available

As more regular or permanent hours become available, these may be offered to members of our casual team first.

About the Role

As a Casual Playworker, you'll support our team in delivering high-quality childcare and creating a safe, welcoming, and exciting environment for children.

You'll help deliver a variety of activities, support daily routines, and ensure every child feels included, valued, and ready for adventure.

No two sessions are the same — one day could involve sports and team challenges, while another might be filled with crafts, games, and creative play!

What You'll Be Doing

• Deliver fun, age-appropriate activities including multi-sports, arts & crafts, games, and creative play
• Support children with enthusiasm, care, and positivity
• Create a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment
• Set up and tidy away activity areas and equipment
• Prepare snacks and support sign-in and sign-out procedures
• Encourage children's confidence, creativity, and teamwork
• Follow safeguarding, health & safety, and company procedures
• Work collaboratively with the team to deliver excellent childcare experiences

⭐ What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who:

• Loves working with children and brings a positive, can-do attitude
• Is reliable, flexible, and enthusiastic
• Enjoys being creative and making sessions fun
• Can build positive relationships with children quickly
• Is confident supporting activities and working as part of a team

Experience is welcomed but not essential. We'd love to hear from candidates with backgrounds in:

• Childcare
• Playwork
• Teaching Assistant roles
• Sports Coaching
• Youth Work
• Education
• Activity Leadership
• Drama, Dance, or Performing Arts

Most importantly, we’re looking for the right attitude, energy, and passion for working with children.

What's in it for You?

• Up to £12.71 per hour (plus holiday pay)
• Flexible working to fit around your lifestyle
• Opportunity to gain experience within childcare
• Paid training and ongoing professional development
• Access to 24/7 wellbeing support through Health Assured
• Discounted childcare where applicable
• Refer-a-friend rewards
• A warm, welcoming, and supportive team environment
• Opportunities to take on additional hours in the future
