Organization prepares for a fun-filled summer with exciting job opportunities at all YMCA locations
The YMCA of Greater Houston is excited to welcome new and returning seasonal and part-time employees to the YMCA family. The organization is looking to fill over 700 positions this summer across all locations in the Greater Houston area.
To ensure a safe, fun summer for all, the YMCA is in search of lifeguards, swim instructors, day camp counselors, resident camp counselors and more. In addition to competitive compensation, all part-time employees benefit from flexible work schedules, free YMCA memberships and ample opportunity to develop as an individual and leader in the community.
The organization also seeks qualified candidates for positions within other Y areas, including YMCA International Services and the Healthy Living department. From bilingual case managers to support Houston’s refugee and immigrant communities to dance instructors for youth and adults, the YMCA provides a diverse set of opportunities for job seekers who are looking to make a difference in the community.
“We are so grateful to our YMCA family and look forward to expanding our talented and dedicated team to join the Y movement,” says Jennifer Lopez, Chief Human Resources Officer, YMCA of Greater Houston. “Each position is essential in providing structured and quality programming within our organization while also inspiring change. Working at the Y is more than a job. It gives you the opportunity to strengthen communities and change lives, empower youth, improve health and well-being, inspire action in your community, work with diverse leaders and find your purpose.”
