Job Description
EF International Language Campuses in Tarrytown is looking for a talented and exceptional individual to join its team of Residence Advisors! We seek a motivated, responsible, dynamic, and community-building individual to take on the exciting challenge of working in an international environment. Previous experience as a Resident Advisor is always a plus, but it is not required!
About The Position
As an RA at EF you have the opportunity to work one-on-one with a highly diverse student population and a high-energy staff. The position provides great flexibility and requires you to wear many hats including administrator, leader, event coordinator, role model, counselor, and policy enforcer (to name a few). This is a job where we truly ask you to bring your personality to the position.
Shifts consist of day, night, and weekends, making this a perfect part-time job for someone in school or working a typical 9-5 job. Very rarely, we offer additional weekday availability for trainings.
While on duty, you will be performing administrative tasks and be on-call in the residence. We also ask that you help plan and organize activities, monitor buildings and conduct weekly room checks, assist in the everyday safety and wellbeing of students, and attendstaff meetings. Additional shifts may be requested to meet the demands of the school operations. We are looking for RAs that not only are friendly and personable while working at the reception desk but also can build meaningful connections with the residents on their floor, even when off-duty! 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." Taking night classes cannot conflict with desk duty during the week.

About EF Education First
Some companies are in the Business of Technology.
Others are in the Business of Finance….Sports…Or Soft Drinks.
At EF, we're in a different kind of Business.
One that's a little less tangible, and a lot more important.
Because our Business, what we make, makes everything else possible.
We're in the Business of Understanding.
Between people. Between cultures.
For over half a century we’ve been the leader in international educational programs and experiences designed to foster such understanding. Through Language, Cultural Exchange, Academic Studies, and Educational Travel, we create the kinds of immersive experiences that challenge biases, open minds, and pave the way for a more understanding world.
You’ll find our 115 offices located in some of the world’s greatest cities, and filled with smart, driven people who push each other to be better every day. And yes, we have technology, we have finance, we even have sports with our own professional cycling team. But it’s what we do with it – Building greater understanding, breaking down barriers, and creating a better world…that makes all the difference.
