  • Supporting arrivals/departures and keeping basic attendance/records up to date
  • Helping ensure students follow safety rules and EF behaviour expectations
  • Supporting evening activities (yes — this can include late nights, like discos)
 Who you are You’re someone who brings great energy and can handle responsibility — even when things get busy.You are:
  • Fluent in English
  • Fluent in Polish
  • Fluent in another third Language is a huge plus! 
  • Confident, organised, and naturally good with people
  • Responsible, calm under pressure, and quick to problem-solve
  • Experienced working with young people (teacher, camp leader, scout leader, sports coach etc.)
  • Excited by travel and have an international experience (you’ve travelled/studied/lived abroad — or you’re keen to!)

About EF

Founded in 1965 in Sweden, EF (Education First) is a global association of education companies that shares a common mission of opening the world through education, offering language, academic, cultural exchange and education travel programs.

Some companies are in the business of technology. Others are in the business of finance, sports, or soft drinks. At EF, we’re in a different kind of business. One that’s a little less tangible, and a lot more important. We’re in the business of understanding.

 

For 60 years we’ve been the leader in international educational programs and culturally rich travel experiences with the power to change how people think, feel and act. The programs we deliver open the world to students and travelers in ways that challenge biases, overcome barriers, and pave the way for a more understanding world.  You’ll find us working across more than 50 countries, with offices in some of the world’s greatest cities—each one filled with smart, driven people who push each other to be better every day.  And yes, we have technology, we have finance, we even have sports with our own professional cycling team.  But it’s what we do with it—building greater understanding, breaking down barriers, and creating a better world that makes all the difference.
