Lead Education Coordinator

BadgerBots’ vision is to help create a world where every kid discovers a love for STEM—and knows they can pursue a future in it.  We do this by guiding them on their journey from their first awareness of STEM, growing excitement as they solve challenges and, hopefully, building a lifelong passion that could turn into a career.  

 

We are looking for a coordinator to take the lead for our established summer camp programs (ages 6-12) and school break workshops across the Madison area.

 

Responsibilities:

• Maintain and update curricula for the programs

• Build and lead the execution of camp and workshop plans

• Hire, train and lead teams of teenagers and young adults to support the summer camp season

• Coordinate with marketing resources to create a promotional plan for the programs

• Work with BadgerBots leadership to develop an annual spending plan for camps, including technology, materials and snacks/consumables

• Serve as point of contact for the organization with parents of participants

• Coordinate our registration processes through our online tool

 

Key Qualifications:

• Desire to work in a small, growing non-profit organization

• Experience in communicating effectively to different audiences, from kids to parents

• Confidence working directly with volunteer leadership

• Experience leading teenagers and young adults

• 3+ years of instructing grade school and middle school kids in technology and programming

• Knowledge of FIRST robotics programs is strongly preferred

• STEM education degree preferred

 

Schedule and Location:

The work hours for this position will be mostly during normal business hours.  During times when programs are ongoing, this position will require working on-site.  During non-program periods, this position can support hybrid working.
