About The Position

The Program Leader supports Girl Scouts of Northern California (GSNorCal) Community Based Programs at assigned program sites and, when applicable, through virtual programs. Sites may include schools, affordable housing communities, juvenile justice facilities, residential youth homes, community organizations, and other youth-serving locations. The role facilitates engaging program experiences, supervises participants, builds positive relationships with youth, families, schools, and community partners, supports safety, and helps ensure high-quality program delivery aligned with the Girl Scout Mission. This is a part-time role combining direct program delivery with preparation, planning, staff meetings, trainings, and other operational responsibilities. Schedules vary throughout the year according to program needs, with a minimum recurring availability of five hours per week. Employees are expected to report to assigned sites as scheduled, maintain their committed availability, and communicate availability changes at least two weeks in advance. Supervisor approval is required for recurring changes that affect assigned programming or department operations. Program assignments, schedules, hours, locations, and responsibilities may vary throughout the year. Administrative and planning tasks supplement, rather than replace, direct program responsibilities unless approved by a supervisor.
