Teachers / Outdoor Educators / Counsellors

Full-Time, Contract Guidance Counsellor Instructor Psychologist Special Education Teacher

Job Description

Boundless hires Teachers (either new or slightly used), Mental Health Counsellors (CYCs, CYWs, BSWs and MSWs) and Outdoor Educators to join our merry and sometimes exhausted band of brothers and sisters. All contribute equally to the clumsy educational utopia that we are trying to achieve at Boundless.


By joining our team, you will engage teenagers – sometimes laden with baggage – in high school and wilderness based education. You must be adventurous and resilient. You shall also be facilitating programs for multi-generational and diverse communities. To succeed at this, you must be open-hearted and approachable. 
 
The job takes place on a 600-acre piece of wilderness paradise in the Madawaska Valley of Eastern Ontario. It’s a venue that will seduce your soul.

Our mission is to build close connections with our students. They learn better that way. Being in a classroom feels like a celebration.

Boundless will inspire your devotion to the well-being of our students, all older teenagers. Some won’t be ready to accept you as an authority figure. Tricky, tricky.

As such, the job requires finesse and interpersonal artistry. It is challenging. Kindness, selfless behaviour, and a wicked work ethic will propel you over any hurdle.

Once kids trust us and believe we will have their backs, amazing things start happening. They learn faster, and our school fills with joy and gut-splitting laughter.

Students’ respect must be earned by doing what we say we are going to do, adapting to their needs, and by simply being “real”.

Don't have outdoor skills? No problem! We will train you in any and all of the activities we do. 

We invest heavily in our staff team. There are roughly 30 days of training each and every year. We pay for a variety of certifications and cover a majority of your expenses. We’ll go above and beyond the help you figure this place out.
