This position relies heavily on strong facilitation skills, knowledge of experiential pedagogy and practice, and excellent relationship-building skills. We work in multiple modalities that are play-based, and while those always have clear educational outcomes, we choose play for intentional reasons. Be playful! It is a big part of our work, together and with participants. This position will primarily focus on the execution of pre-designed programs and the relationship cultivation and maintenance with our program partners that is critical to our success in the communities we serve.
This will be a part time, temporary, seasonal position that will support a few, key programs around the US from the date of hire through the end of 2024.

Travel expenses to and from the program locations are covered in accordance with GutMonkey travel policies. All program equipment and materials will be provided by GutMonkey.
