Paid internship as well as regular guiding and administrative positions are open for the 2016 summer season. Positions run from late May through mid-August and can fit in well with summer break timelines.
Here’s a link to some more information and specifics about the positions: Alaska Mountain Guides & Chilkat Guides. Most positions are entry level with no previous professional experience required. All of the training needed for a guiding position as a part of employment is provided. Here’s a quick list of positions we’re looking to fill:
- Entry-level River Guide (no previous experience required, Swiftwater Rescue and WFR certification offered as a part of training)
- Rock climbing and zip line guide (no previous guiding experience required)
- Sea kayak guide (no previous guiding experience required)
- Administrative assistant
All of the guiding positions are in our day trip programs in Haines or Skagway, Alaska but more qualified guides may have the opportunity to do some work in our long trip/expedition programming.
