Scottsdale’s nationally accredited and award-winning parks and recreation department is currently seeking recreation leaders to run programs and operations at some of the best locations in the Valley.

Many of these positions are part-time and have flexible hours (like nights and weekends) for all ages, according to a press release.

The current opportunities are:
