ABOUT CATS COLLEGE CAMBRIDGE
CATS College offers an outstanding international pre-university educational experience to students aged 14+ from all over the world. Students live and work at the custom built Cambridge campus, studying for GCSEs, A levels and University Foundation Programmes, and preparing for admission to universities across the country and elsewhere. We pride ourselves on our approach to teaching and learning, with small class sizes and an informal atmosphere ensuring that students are treated as individuals and build great relationships with staff. We are committed to the safeguarding, health and well-being of our students.
ABOUT OUR SUMMER SCHOOL
Across all our sites we run a busy Summer School, welcoming anywhere up to 400 students on short summer courses. The students come from all over the world and are here to learn English and explore our wonderful cities and towns.
In order to make sure they have a five star experience, we need a team of motivated people to help out with operations on an ad-hoc basis to support the Summer Team.

Please note, this role is a zero-hour contract and therefore hours cannot be guaranteed. The position offers a pay rate of £12.21 per hour and the successful candidates must be within a reasonable commuting distance as we are unable to provide accommodation for this role.
The roles would suit college / uni students, gap students or anyone looking to earn an extra income this summer. You do not need any experience as full training will be given. We also have some weekend only positions available, this can be discussed at initial screening. You will need to possess a can-do attitude as it is all hands on deck during the summer. An ability to work on your own initiative as well as being a good team player is a pre-requisite. Experience gained within a residential environment would be of use and a sense of humour goes a long way too!
