Woodhouse Adventure Park – located in the Adelaide Hills, just 25 minutes from the city – is a leader in youth activity and maintains high brand recognition within family, corporate, social and education communities.

We build group development, promote self-growth and create connections to nature through our shared love of the outdoors and experience-based accommodation.

With the full support of Scouts SA, an organisation made up of over 250 employees, opportunity to progress into adventure-based outdoor education at sister property Roonka River Adventure Park in the Riverland, and on the job training, a casual position with the Camps & Adventure Parks team can lead to a fulfilling career.

Adventure awaits…

We cultivate a supportive atmosphere where every staff member is treated with dignity and respect, and where all ideas and opinions are valued and given a voice.

Shifts ranging from three to nine hours are available weekdays (term and holidays), weekends and public holidays so work can fit around your personal commitments – ideal for university, TAFE and senior high school students.

Additionally, if you have a passion for working with children in the great outdoors but prefer the comfort of your own bed at the end of the day, or if you simply want to explore outdoor education, we are the perfect option for you.

As a member of our diverse and inclusive team, your ultimate goal is to create exceptional, memorable experiences for all ages through fun and challenging outdoor activities. You will work across a varied range of offerings – alongside a great bunch of like-minded outdoor enthusiasts – supervising and leading activity programs with a primary focus of keeping participants safe and engaged.

  • Mid-week – school term: Your main role is facilitating school camps and excursions. At Woodhouse, you’ll lead activities from Challenge Hill obstacle course and Geocaching, to Bridge Building and Team Challenges – as well as running Laser Skirmish and Tube Slides. At Roonka, the program will also include water activities such as paddling and raft building.
  • Mid-week – school holidays (Woodhouse only): We welcome heaps of OSHC and community groups and many will book a private Tube Slide session requiring facilitation. We also run facilitated ‘drop & go’ day camps designed for 5-12 year olds, with a different activity theme each day.
  • Weekends (Woodhouse only): Anything from running a team building session with a corporate group, being a birthday party host for an adventurous bunch of 10-year-olds, running a game of Laser Skirmish or pushing overnight guests and day visitors down the Tube Slides.
  • Office work – 7 days (Woodhouse only): Available for those who also enjoy being in the office. Duties include checking groups into buildings, welcoming general public for the day or camping, helping out with the phones, emails and all the back end planning and organising for camps.

A successful candidate will be energetic and have a friendly and welcoming nature, be a keen multi-tasker and will realise success through extraordinary customer service, exceptional communication, an eager attitude to succeed and a strong passion for the property and visitor experiences.
