Our search for a phenomenal 2012 seasonal Home Office team is officially underway! Each January, the year-round Home Office staff are joined by seasonal team members in our Recruiting and Customer Service departments who play an integral role in preparing for the upcoming summer (our eleventh!), and bring even more spirit to life at Galileo headquarters.

In addition to all the great things you know about Galileo from working at camp, Galileo Learning was recognized in 2011 as the No. 1 “Best Place to Work in the Bay Area” by The SF Business Times. Working on our Home Office team of 30+ means joining a close-knit group of high achievers who are passionate about Galileo’s mission: to develop innovators who envision and create a better world.

Help us find great new staff members who will contribute to the magic of camp from behind the scenes, spending the spring months with a team interested in supporting your professional development.
