It’s that time of year again we're looking for enthusiastic and passionate riders to work as guides this coming summer season (May – October).
We operate from a unique riders’ centre located in the mtb mecca that is Whistler, BC (which has to be experienced to be believed!) and provide a whole range of fully guided and catered riding holidays which include XC, All-Mountain, Freeride and Downhill options alongside our legendary backcountry floatplane and Heli-drop adventures.
We are looking to fill the following 4 guide positions:
- Lead Guide: Freeride
- Lead Guide: All-Mountain/Technical Singletrack
- Support/Tail Guides: x2
Ideally all applicants should have the following experience/qualifications:
- The Scottish TCL/MBL award (or similar)
- Experience of guiding groups of up to 6 riders of varying ability levels
- A valid 8 hr first aid certificate
- A current clean drivers licence
- Good bike/mechanical repair knowledge
- Ideally some experience of coaching/instruction
Alongside the above, all of our guides need to be great communicators and motivators with the ability to work well in a busy team environment and maintain high spirits (even when faced with a grizzly!)
You will also be required to organise a Canadian working visa which can be obtained though
Bunac.
As well as spending your summer riding in the best place on the planet, you’ll also receive the following:
- Some money
- Accommodation
- Food
- Lift Pass
- Great deals on bikes
- Parts Support
