Residence Advisor - Cape Town at EF Education First

About the Position: 

As an RA at EF you have the opportunity to work one-on-one with a diverse, international student population. The position provides great flexibility and requires you to wear many hats including administrator, leader, event coordinator, role model, counsellor, and policy enforcer (to name a few). This is a job where we truly ask you to bring your personality to the position.

• You will report directly to the Accommodations/ Student Services Coordinator and assist them with associated tasks. 
• Shifts occur during nights and weekends, making this a perfect part-time job for a university/ college student or an individual working a typical 9-5 job.
• We may ask for some weekday availability for trainings at our office and on occasion for assistance with EF events and activities. 
• While on duty, you will be performing administrative tasks, and be on call in the residence to assist with student's needs and queries.
• You will assist with student check-in’s every weekend (Saturdays and Sundays), with Sunday’s being the most important day to attend to this.
• You will also work closely monitoring the cleaning staff to make sure the residence is kept neat and tidy.
• You will need to keep a logbook at the residence and record your inspections.
• We also ask that you help plan and organise activities, do weekly room checks, and attend staff meetings.
• Additional shifts may be requested to meet the demands of the school operations.
• We are looking for RA's that not only are friendly and personable while working at the residence, but also can build meaningful connections with the students at the residence!
• The part-time nature of the position also allows for the flexibility to pursue a graduate degree in related fields or maintain a "day job."  

Please note, taking night classes cannot conflict with desk duty during the week.
