Rental Tech 2023
Maybe this job title isn’t as glamorous as Equipment Manager or Canoe Guide, but it sure is a hell
of a lot of fun. Some days are so busy quitting time will arrive in the blink of an eye. On slower
days, usually when it’s raining, we’ll have you puttering around doing odd jobs such as sweeping,
giving the washrooms a deep clean and organizing. It’s like working in a fast food restaurant,
except it’s a bit more hip, and the pay is better, and you’re serving canoes instead of burgers,
and you don’t go home smelling like the fryers.
Okay, it’s nothing like a fast food restaurant.
The best part of this position is the camaraderie. Our team is a group of friends (don’t worry, we
add new friends each season) who have vegetable gardens, brew beer and ‘booch, explore the
backcountry and travel in the off season. There’s usually a campfire at least once a week.
We usually start our staff at $12.50/hr and bump that up to $13/hr $16.50/hr (unless you’re totally
awesome, then we can talk about more). Payday is every second week. We’ll drop some beer at the
office on the in-between weeks so there’s still something to look forward to.
Ask about accommodation.
Each season we offer this position from:
mid-May or June through to early-September or mid-October
You’ll be at the head of the pack if you bring these to the table:
• second language (French, German, Mandarin)
• Mi’kmaq heritage
• equanimity
• digital marketing experience
• savvy with social media
• desire to have a vegetable patch (okay, this isn’t that important, but it sure is cool)
Send a cover letter (important!) detailing what you’ve accomplished (in line with this job) that
you’re proud of and what you intend to do for us and how that’ll translate to us becoming the best
adventure tourism company in the world. Please include your resume, too. (info@whynotadventure.ca)
Also, even if you don’t feel you’re qualified or are just nervous, send your resume and cover
letter anyway (some of our finest team members almost didn’t apply…). Applications accepted until March 15th, 2023
