Recreation Services is hiring for the fall!

Get paid to do what you’re good at! If you’re an ice skater, hockey player, sports superstar, science wiz or artist – you have a teachable skill. The City of Vaughan is hiring part-time Recreation Program Instructors to work at Vaughan community centres for our fall programming, which kicks off on Saturday, Sept. 23.

Interested? You’re invited to attend a virtual hiring event in August for positions at community centres across the city, or one of four in-person hiring events being held for positions at the newly re-opened Garnet A. Williams Community Centre.

To guarantee an interview time, register in advance for a hiring event at vaughan.perfectmind.com. Registration opens two weeks before each hiring event. Qualified candidates will be contacted to coordinate an interview time for the following dates:

Compensation ranges from $15.50 to $26 per hour, depending on the position. Perks include flexible work hours and shifts (including evenings and weekends), competitive wages, ongoing training and a discount on a Vaughan Fitness membership. In other words, it’s the perfect job for students!
