About The Role

We are looking for a confident, outgoing individual to assist with operating our Canoe Safari Trail. You will be engaging with and instructing our visitors to ensure they have an unforgettable experience whilst hiring a canoe on a self-paddled trail through our nature reserve.  Previous experience of canoeing and/or water sports and working in a busy visitor focused environment will be an advantage, however full training will be provided.

A practical can do attitude is highly sought after.

You don’t need to know how to paddle a canoe, we are happy to show you, what is really important to us is your ability to deliver great customer service and ensure that our visitors have an amazing time.
