About Camp Connect USA & CIEE
Camp Connect USA is part of CIEE (Council on International Educational Exchange) — one of the world's leading non-profit cultural exchange organisations, connecting young people with life-changing opportunities in the United States since 1961. Through our flagship CIEE Camp Counsellor Program, we place UK university students at American summer camps, where they spend the summer working with children, building leadership skills, and exploring the USA.
We're now looking for enthusiastic, well-connected students to join our Campus Ambassador network and help spread the word about this incredible opportunity at their university.
The Role
As a Camp Connect USA Student Ambassador, you'll be the face of our programme on your campus. Your mission is simple: find students who'd love to spend a summer in the USA working at a summer camp, and help them take the first step towards applying.
This is a fully flexible, freelance role — you set your own hours and work around your studies. There's no cold calling, no office, and no rigid schedule. You'll be promoting a programme you genuinely believe in, to people just like you.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You'll Do
- Promote the CIEE Camp Counsellor Program to fellow students through conversations, social media, campus events, and university societies
- Share your own enthusiasm for travel, work experience, and the USA to inspire sign-ups
- Distribute programme information across campus — noticeboards, group chats, student union events
- Represent Camp Connect USA at fresher fairs, career events, and other campus activities where relevant
- Report your progress to the Camp Connect USA team based in Bath.
Compensation
This role is commission-based only, you earn for every student you refer who signs up to the CIEE Camp Counsellor Program. The more you promote, the more you earn. Full compensation details will be provided at interview. Earnings are uncapped and there is no minimum or maximum targets to hit meaning you can fit work easily around your studies and when you have free time. Expected earnings entirely depend on how much time you put into it.
Who We're Looking For
You don't need a CV full of sales experience, you just need to be the kind of person other students listen to and trust. The ideal ambassador:
- Is currently enrolled at a UK university (any year, any subject, any location)
- Is sociable, well-networked on campus, and active on social media
- Has a genuine interest in travel, working abroad, or cultural exchange
- Is self-motivated and comfortable working independently
- Bonus: has personally done a summer camp, J-1 programme, or similar experience (but not required)

- Full J-1 visa sponsorship and support
- Room, board, and spending money at camp
- Up to 30 days of post-camp travel across the USA

This is an easy programme to champion. It genuinely changes lives and sells itself once students hear about it.
