Are you a hands-on, detail-oriented tour guide (or similar), passionate about the Canadian Rockies, and eager to work amidst the stunning vistas of Banff?
If you're ready to take on more responsibility by helping oversee a team of tour guides and managing day-to-day operational logistics at a busy Banff-based adventure company, then we’re looking for you!

Company Overview:
Surrounded by the peaks of Banff National Park, Radventures has quickly become a premier adventure tour operator in the Canadian Rockies.

Team Leadership: Support, manage, and bridge communication between our teams of guides, detailers, reservations, and management as needed.
Flexibility: Demonstrate enthusiasm and leadership in all tasks, from picking up trash to providing top-tier guided experiences in the stunning mountains of Banff National Park. Be motivated to grow and understand all aspects of the business, stepping in wherever required.
Tour Guiding: Serve as a fully functioning guide when needed, leading guests on Radventures’ award-winning day and multi-day tours.
Your Unique Traits:

A desire to grow into a management position with Radventures while developing your skill sets and contributing to our success.
An understanding of how to motivate and lead a team by example with compassion and clear communication.
A passion for Banff, the Canadian Rockies, and outdoor adventure.
Exceptional logistical, organizational, and multitasking skills, with an eye for detail and an ear for nuance.
A willingness to go the extra mile to deliver outstanding guest experiences.
Requirements:

Hands-on experience in a supervisory role guiding (or similar industry), driving, customer service, administrative tasks, or operational management.
Strong communication skills and a knack for creating order from chaos.
Physically capable of lifting 25 kg, changing vehicle tires, working long days outdoors in a mountainous environment, and assisting team members as required.
