Job description
- Teen Program Specialist – Sedro-Woolley Club $21.75 - $23.07 DOE/DOQ | Approximately 29 hours/week Not every teen needs another adult telling them what to do.
- Sometimes they need someone who can meet them where they are, talk about the latest game release, jump into a pickup basketball game, laugh at the memes they show you, and still quietly help them build confidence, life skills, and a vision for their future.
- That is what this role is about.
- Our Sedro-Woolley teens need someone who understands that connection comes first.
- Someone who can use gaming, sports, recreation, conversations, leadership opportunities, and everyday moments to help teens feel seen, supported, and challenged to grow.
- One minute you might be helping organize a tournament or activity, and the next you could be helping a teen prepare for a first job interview, complete an application, or talk through what comes after high school.
- This position is about being a trusted mentor, a positive role model, an encourager, and a consistent presence.
- The kind of adult teens actually want to talk to.
- The Teen Program Specialist helps create engaging programs and experiences focused on leadership, healthy lifestyles, career readiness, recreation, academics, and community involvement.
- You will help continue building and shaping a growing teen program where young people feel connected, supported, challenged, and excited to show up.
- We are looking for someone who is positive, adaptable, relationship-focused, and genuinely enjoys working with middle school and high school youth.
- Experience working with teens is preferred, but just as important is the ability to connect with young people in an authentic and respectful way.
- If you are the kind of person who can turn shared interests into meaningful mentorship and believe teens deserve adults who genuinely show up for them, we encourage you to apply.
