Position Overview

TAC Sports is seeking a full-time Financial Literacy & Entrepreneurship Camp Instructor to lead an engaging and interactive summer camp program focused on money management, business fundamentals, and entrepreneurial thinking. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working with children, has an interest in financial literacy and entrepreneurship, and can create a fun, supportive, and inspiring learning environment.

This week-long program introduces campers to the core principles of money and business through interactive lessons, games, and challenges. Campers explore the meaning and history of money, the five principles of money—earning, spending, saving, investing, and giving—and foundational topics such as taxes, real estate, and capitalism. Throughout the week, participants apply their learning by developing their own business ideas and presenting them at the end of the program.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead camp sessions in a safe, engaging, and age-appropriate environment

• Teach financial literacy concepts such as earning, spending, saving, investing, giving, taxes, real estate, and basic economics

• Introduce entrepreneurship concepts through interactive lessons, discussions, games, and hands-on challenges

• Guide campers in developing creative business ideas and applying key financial principles to their projects

• Foster critical thinking, teamwork, confidence, and problem-solving through group activities and presentations

• Support campers in preparing for an end-of-week presentation showcasing their business ideas

• Create an inclusive and encouraging environment that makes learning about finance and entrepreneurship fun and accessible

• Supervise campers throughout activities, transitions, and breaks to ensure safety and positive behaviour

• Assist with daily camp setup, cleanup, material preparation, and activity organization

• Build positive relationships with campers, families, and TAC Sports staff

• Follow TAC Sports’ program plans, safety procedures, and child supervision standards at all times

Qualifications

• Experience working with children in camps, education, recreation, tutoring, or youth programs

• Interest in financial literacy, business, entrepreneurship, or economics

• Strong communication, leadership, and teamwork skills

• Energetic, patient, and confident leading groups in a camp or classroom-style setting

• Ability to make financial and business concepts engaging, practical, and easy to understand for children

• Background in business, education, economics, finance, recreation, or a related field is an asset

• First Aid/CPR certification and Vulnerable Sector Check, or willingness to obtain them, preferred

What We Offer

• Full-time summer employment with a growing youth sports and enrichment organization

• A fun, engaging, and supportive team environment

• Meaningful work helping children build confidence, financial awareness, and entrepreneurial thinking

• A dynamic role combining education, creativity, and camp programming

• Opportunities for training, growth, and continued involvement with TAC Sports
