Join Our Wilderness Support Team
Thunder Bay-Based | Fly-In Remote Camp Detailing & Light Maintenance
**About the Opportunity**
At Wilderness North, we operate across three interconnected streams: world-class wilderness lodges and outpost camps, a fleet of float-equipped aircraft, and innovative fuel transport technologies that serve Canada’s most remote regions.
To keep everything running smoothly, we’re building a Wilderness Support Team—a group of capable, hands-on people who can step in to help maintain our aircraft, facilities, and remote properties throughout the season.
Whether you’re semi-retired, between careers, or simply looking for something meaningful and hands-on, this is your chance to be part of a team that flies into Ontario’s wilderness to care for the details that keep our operation exceptional. You might be prepping a remote cabin for guests, detailing a floatplane, or helping open or close a camp for the season.
This is flexible, contract-style work suited to individuals based in Thunder Bay who are physically fit, dependable, and excited by the idea of flying into the bush for a few days at a time to support a unique northern operation.
**Who We’re Looking For**
We're seeking people with a positive attitude, a solid work ethic, and a willingness to get their hands dirty. Whether you have a background in camp work, trades, aviation, hospitality, or simply enjoy working as part of a team—there’s a place for you on our Support Team.
We value reliability, adaptability, and pride in your work far more than the perfect résumé.
Support Team Responsibilities
Members of the Wilderness Support Team may be called upon for tasks such as:
- Cleaning and detailing interiors and exteriors of our aircraft (Air Tractor 802s, DeHavilland Turbine Otters, Beavers, Cessna 208Bs, and 185s).
- Assisting with touch-up work on aircraft, equipment, and facility structures.
- Deep-cleaning, restocking, and preparing guest cabins at outpost camps and lodges.
- Participating in seasonal camp openings and closings, including hauling gear and prepping facilities.
- Cleaning and maintaining boats and equipment used at remote properties.
- Organizing and cleaning hangars and operational areas at our Thunder Bay and Armstrong bases.
- Traveling via floatplane to perform multi-day assignments in remote locations.
- Reporting maintenance needs and supporting minor repair tasks.
- Operating cleaning tools and equipment safely and efficiently.
- Following all safety protocols and environmental standards.
**How It Works**
As part of the Wilderness Support Team, you’ll be added to our list of trusted team members we call upon as needs arise—especially during high-traffic periods like spring openings, seasonal closings, and peak guest turnover times.
Assignments may range from a single day of work in Thunder Bay to multi-day trips into the bush. We’ll match opportunities to your skillset and availability.
**Compensation**
We offer competitive pay based on your experience and the scope of work performed. Compensation will be discussed individually with each team member.
**Ready to Join?**
If this sounds like the kind of work that excites you—or someone you know—reach out. We’re building something special, and we’re looking for down-to-earth, dependable people to be part of it.
**Job Type**: Casual
Pay: $23.00-$35.00 per hour
Expected hours: 8 - 32 per week
Schedule:
- Monday to Friday
- Weekends as needed
