Outdoor & Recreation — Learning from the surroundings.
Outdoors, the surroundings are part of the work. The weather changes, people move and conditions are not always controlled. You learn to observe, adapt and respond as the day moves on.
The work
Visitor support, recreation operations and equipment service. Specific duties are reviewed for each opportunity.
The preparation
English to communicate during your shift, comfort working outdoors and attention to changing conditions.
The role, duties and dates must fit your profile, university vacation and the sponsor’s and employer’s conditions.
