Why you should work here
| A strong set of values guides our decision-making at every level. | During your interview, listen for examples of our values in action – ask us, if you don’t hear them.
DEMONSTRATE CARE: With empathy and kindness, we demonstrate deep care for each other, our community, and the work we do.
BRING JOY: We show up with positivity, laughter, and delight. COMMUNICATE AUTHENTICALLY: With candor and respect, we communicate openly. THINK LONG-TERM: We focus on long-term, sustainable value. |
| We’re profitable and established. | CampBrain is not a start-up. Founded in 1994, we are a stable, profitable, privately held company. We have a proven track record, a viable product, and loyal paying customers. |
| Your work will be valued, it will be important, and it will matter. | You’ll be working with and helping 1500+ camps across North America to run their camps successfully. |
| You’ll work with a talented team. | We are smart, funny, empathetic, kind, and we care about the quality of our product and service. |
| We have interesting challenges and there is a lot to learn. | One million campers will register through our system this year resulting in almost a billion dollars of e-commerce. Operating at this scale raises unique issues for us and our clients, and demands high-quality support and problem solving. |
| We have embraced a hybrid approach. | Should you choose to work in the office, we are based in an old brick-and-beam building that used to be the Heintzman Piano Factory. The space is open and bright with lots of natural light. Should you choose to work from home, we have a WFH allowance to assist. Perhaps you would like a bit of both? Great. We’re flexible. |
| Company culture and events. | We are a close-knit team building a product and company we love. The people we work with and our company culture are incredibly important to us. We work hard to cultivate our culture and provide opportunities to gather & connect, both online & in-person.
