New York, United States School of American Ballet at Lincoln Center Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

ORGANIZATION OVERVIEW

The School of American Ballet (SAB) at Lincoln Center, founded by George Balanchine and Lincoln Kirstein, is the preeminent ballet school in the country. Our mission is to train professional dancers for careers in classical ballet.

During the Winter Term (September-June), sixty-four Advanced students reside on-site at the School in the Meredith Willson Residence Hall, a facility shared with the Juilliard School.  During SAB’s 5-week Summer Course (June and July), 200 middle school and high school students reside on campus.

STUDENT LIFE DEPARTMENT

SAB’s Department of Student Life is dedicated to fostering and promoting a well-rounded approach to the emotional, social, physical, cultural, intellectual, and academic spheres of SAB students’ lives. The Department’s work is deeply engrained into the SAB student experience and aims to enhance students’ artistic training by supporting them fully outside of the studios. At times, the Summer Course Assistant role will require a level of physical exertion beyond sitting. Move-in and move-out periods will require longer stretches of activity and physical tasks such as lifting, sorting, and organizing. Duty and on-call responsibilities may result in disrupted sleep or longer workdays without prior notice. A successful candidate will show the ability to balance their self-care and well-being with the responsibilities of the Summer Course Assistant position.

POSITION DESCRIPTION (Hiring for 7 open positions)

The Summer Course Assistant (SCA) role was created to provide live-in supervision for approximately 190 students from ages 11 – 18, who live in the Meredith Willson Residence Hall at the School of American Ballet for the 5-week training intensive known as the Summer Course. Summer Course Assistants will work as part of the Student Life department, providing 24-hour supervision in all aspects of the student experience, including during chaperoned trips, in responding to emergencies and in enforcing curfew and sign-out procedures.

A successful candidate will demonstrate the ability to consistently enforce School policy and procedure, while developing professional rapport with students that supports a positive community atmosphere where all students feel safe and respected.

SAB will provide SCA staff members with a fully furnished private room housed within a suite of Summer Course students, where they are required to reside. During employment, Summer Course Assistants are not permitted to host guests, or possess/consume alcohol anywhere in the building.

Dance experience is not required or preferred. Diverse applicants are strongly encouraged to apply.

Under the supervision of the Assistant Directors and Senior Manager of Student Life, the responsibilities of the SCA role include:

  • Staff the Residence Hall desk under the supervision of a Residence Director (RD) from 4 pm – 12 am on weeknights, and on rotating weekend days.
  • Share on-call responsibility to assist RD with emergency response in overnight hours (12 am – 8 am).
  • Provide Office Hours coverage (10 am – 1 pm OR 1 pm – 4 pm) on a rotating basis.
  • Provide “in loco parentis” (in place of parents) supervision for students under the age of 18.
  • Remain visible and respond immediately to any medical emergency, fire safety and security concern, student well-being, or community concerns.
  • Enforce SAB Student Life policies and procedures and assign appropriate disciplinary measures.
  • Assist with the administrative functions of the Residence Life office, including filing, printing, organization, answering the phone, and other reception functions, as assigned.
  • Serve as a chaperone for off-campus activities, as assigned.
  • Accompany students to medical appointments, as assigned.
  • Assist in the implementation of in-house social programming, as assigned.
