To work as a Canoe Activity Instructor you need to be qualified to a minimum of the British Canoe Union (BCU) Trainee Level 2 Coach award or hold your UKCC Level 1 Coach  award. We're also looking for enthusiasm, a willingness to learn and lots of energy.

We look for applications from people who can demonstrate the ability to relate to young people.  Qualifications are essential but so is the ability to work confidently with young people and their teachers.

This role is great for anyone looking to start their career in the outdoor industry, searching for a career break or a rewarding Gap Year project or wishing to develop their existing canoe awards.
