Original job description

Are you interested in helping youth connect with nature? Do you enjoy researching activities and turning ideas into engaging educational programming? We’re looking for a creative and organized individual to contribute their ideas and support environmental program development at CTS.

CTS Youth Society is accepting applications for a Program Assistant to assist with developing environmental programming and educational resources for our camps, Youth Council, and youth leadership programs.

About CTS Youth Society

CTS Youth Society connects youth across Metro Vancouver with their natural environment, the Metro Vancouver Regional Parks system, and surrounding communities through hands-on, life-changing outdoor experiences. Our motto, “For Youth, By Youth,” guides our approach, giving young people opportunities to contribute ideas, build skills, and take active roles in their communities.

CTS provides free, accessible day and overnight camps for youth ages 12–18, combining environmental education, restoration activities, outdoor recreation, and community building. Our Peer Leader program supports youth ages 15–18 in developing leadership skills through training, mentorship, and hands-on experience planning and facilitating camp activities. Youth Council provides ongoing opportunities for youth ages 14–18 to stay connected, help shape future programming, and participate in environmental and community projects.

Through these programs, CTS aims to:

Create opportunities for youth to develop leadership, confidence, social responsibility, and a sense of ownership;
Connect youth with each other and their communities through environmental education, restoration, and volunteerism;
Encourage lasting connections with regional parks and the outdoors by reducing barriers to participation and creating welcoming, inclusive experiences.

The Program Assistant will help turn ideas into practical activity plans that staff and Peer Leaders can use, while reviewing and improving existing program materials. This work will consider youth interests, different learning needs, available resources, and CTS’s mission. The Program Manager will assign tasks, establish priorities, and provide ongoing guidance, with room for the Program Assistant to take initiative, contribute ideas, and help bring them into practice.

This is a primarily remote position with flexible hours that can accommodate school or other commitments. Regular check-ins with the Program Manager will support progress and collaboration. Occasional in-person meetings, events, or program days may be required, with availability confirmed before scheduling.

Experience planning or facilitating educational activities, with an understanding of how to adapt programming for different ages, interests, abilities, and learning needs
Ability to research information and turn it into clear, engaging activity plans and practical educational resources
Strong organizational and time-management skills, including the ability to manage assigned tasks, maintain accurate files, and meet agreed deadlines
Clear written and verbal communication skills, with a willingness to ask questions, receive feedback, and collaborate with the Program Manager
Ability to work independently in a primarily remote environment while providing regular updates on progress
Creativity, initiative, and willingness to contribute ideas that align with CTS’s mission and program goals
Proficiency with Google Workspace or Microsoft Office and comfort using online meeting and collaboration tools
Commitment to inclusion, accessibility, and creating safe, welcoming experiences for youth from diverse backgrounds
Willing to obtain a criminal record check and Vulnerable Sector Search
