About the Role
We're looking for two confident, capable, and kind-hearted individuals to share the role of Lead Information Cadette on-site at Camp Kindling & Camp Wildfire 2026.
As Lead Information Cadettes, you'll each work 6-hour shifts per day (Friday–Sunday), sharing responsibility for managing the Info Cabin and leading a team of 4–5 Information Cadettes. Together, you'll support guest queries, keep operations running smoothly, and serve as the go-to people for all things information, communication, and camper support.
Full training will be provided and paid for in advance of the events, along with a paid prep day ahead of the first weekend to help you get fully set up and ready to lead confidently.
This is an ideal role for someone with a strong background in customer service, who's comfortable leading a team in a busy, festival-style environment, and who thrives on keeping things calm, clear, and running like clockwork.
What You'll Be Doing
- Preparing the Info Cabin ahead of each event – ensuring power, Wi-Fi, lighting, furniture, iPads, laptops, extension cables, stationery, signage, and all other essential equipment are set up and ready to go
- Becoming familiar with the site layout, setup, and key event details, and helping to ensure the rest of the Information Cadette team is equally well-briefed
- Co-leading the daily operations of the Info Cabin (a role shared between two Leads)
- Creating and managing shift rotas, ensuring the Info Cabin is adequately staffed throughout the 12-hour opening period
- Supporting camper queries, including directions, lost property, campsite information, activity schedules, complaints, and bookings for extras like the spa or Cupid's Club
- Guiding, motivating, and assisting the Information Cadette team throughout the event
- Handling more complex or sensitive issues, and escalating them to senior management when needed
- Liaising with other departments to keep information consistent and accurate
- Maintaining a tidy, well-stocked, and smoothly running Info Cabin at all times
- Assisting with on-site communications, updates and any last-minute changes
Who We're Looking For
- Friendly, approachable, and calm under pressure
- Natural communicators and confident team leaders
- Strong organisational skills, you love a well-run shift and a tidy cabin!
- Comfortable using basic tech (iPads, spreadsheets, as well as our event specific booking/enrolment systems – training provided)
- Proactive problem-solvers, with good judgement and attention to detail
- Experienced in customer service, box office, event management or similar roles
- Flexible, reliable, and unphased by the unexpected (rain, glitter, or both!)
- Enjoy the outdoors and being part of something joyful and unique
Shift Info & Perks
- The Info Cabin is open 12 hours per day, with shifts split between a small team
- You'll always have your evenings free to enjoy the magic of Camp
- When you're off-shift, you're welcome to take part in our walk-up activities, and book into any credited activities with available spaces
- 1 meal provided per shift
- A great opportunity to step into a leadership role in a supportive, fun and one-of-a-kind environment
- Festival wristband and crew camping included
