The Community Recreation Supervisor plays an important role, providing quality

Our services are tailored to help families with the challenges they may face due to
military life and make the most of everyday activities such as going to the
playground or day camp. We believe that when members of the Canadian Armed
Forces are able to take good care of themselves and their families, they can do
better both at home and at work. Whether families need to sign the kids up for
swimming lessons, improve their fitness, make friends in a new community, our
services are here to help.

You will have a diverse portfolio, providing programs for participants of all ages,
from preschoolers to seniors. Each day will be different as you supervise,
coordinate and manage the details of community fitness, sports, arts and culture
programming, civic events and oversee services such as memberships. You will
have a chance to expand your skills and share your passions as you mentor junior
staff and volunteers all with the goal of improving the quality of life for our
military.

We are looking for dynamic, independent and motivated individuals to join our
team, helping us ensure recreation is all about fun!
