Tourism Business Internship

Company
We are an established wilderness eco-tourism company working with a conservation institute to facilitate conservation trips that get our guests actively involved in hands-on conservation projects while reconnecting to nature and themselves. We are located in the Chilcotin Ark, a one of a kind place for wildlife and nature due to the diverse combination of ecosystems. At Chilcotin Holidays, we believe an internship should be more than just another line item on your resume - it should be a life-changing experience profoundly expanding your vision of who you can be and what you can accomplish. In all of our internships, we challenge our interns to clearly identify and continuously re-evaluate their interests, goals, and purpose. Therefore, while you will certainly gain valuable work experience in Tourism Business, you are not restricted to this and you get a holistic experience of what life on a ranch based research centre entails. You will meet colleagues from all around the world, working in this exceptional and unique environment.

You are willing to work long hours of physical work when doing conservation projects and daily tasks which contribute to our self-sustainable lifestyle such as cooking shared meals, housekeeping and other ranch chores e.g. repair maintenance, animal care and cutting wood. These communal living requirements are in addition to the job applied for. They offset any housing, food costs and other opportunities.

Opportunities match responsibility taken and include attending external workshops and learning new skills and gaining knowledge.

Hands-on experience and insights into Nature Conservation, contributing to something bigger and a positive change in the world.
