Employment Process at West Coast Canyoning Adventures
At West Coast Canyoning Adventures, we are always excited to welcome skilled and passionate individuals into our guiding team. However, please note that we typically do not offer full-time employment to new candidates at the outset.
Candidates must hold a recognized Canyoning Guide Certification — either obtained through West Coast Canyoning Adventures or another approved training body. In addition, we expect our guides to hold the following certifications:
Wilderness First Responder (80 hours) for Lead Guides
Wilderness First Aid (40 hours) for Assistant Guides
Swiftwater Rescue Technician (SRT) certification
All guides must also provide a valid Criminal Record Check with a Vulnerable Sector Screening, as we frequently work with youth.
Qualified candidates are invited to join our mandatory staff training session, held at the beginning of the season. This training allows us to assess technical skills, professionalism, teamwork, and alignment with our company values and culture.
If a candidate proves to be a good fit during training, they will be offered a casual guiding position. Depending on performance, integration with the crew, and commitment to our standards, this may develop into a full guiding position as the season progresses.
We believe that building a strong, cohesive team is key to providing exceptional canyoning experiences — and we’re looking for individuals who share that commitment.
