Position Summary


The Pine Project is seeking a skilled backcountry food coordinator to join our Red Wolf Overnight Wilderness Camp staff team.

Reporting to the Red Wolf Camp Manager, the Food Coordinator will be responsible for food planning, purchasing, packing and tracking inventory.

Unlike many overnight camps, the entirety of Red Wolf Overnight Wilderness Camp takes place in a backcountry setting, with campers and staff living in tents, cooking for themselves over open fires, and living in harmony with the land.

As such, this role is critical to ensuring the success of our camp. The Food Coordinator would live on site in a lodge setting for the duration of the contract. If applicants have the ability to commute back and forth then staying on site is not necessary.

This position is all about providing food and sustenance_
