Strathcona Park Lodge & Outdoor Education Centre (SPL), has led the way in outdoor education since 1959. Today we combine outdoor education for school groups with resort offerings for a unique environment. Join our vibrant community of outdoor enthusiasts, living and working in an outdoor adventure seeker and nature-lover’s paradise! Most of our staff live on site and pay between $12 and $15 per day for expenses. Our food is wonderful - from scratch, using many local ingredients; our staff accommodation simple and rustic. Come learn, share and experience!

We offer a healthy and respectful work environment, access to countless outdoor activities and incredible people. As Assistant Housekeeping Manager, you will work with the Housekeeping Manager to motivate staff to maintain and ensure high standards of cleanliness and help create a feeling of pride and team effort. You will work directly with the housekeeping staff (both cleaning as well as inspecting rooms), and, on the days the Housekeeping Manager is off, you will be in charge of the housekeeping department.

Job Skills and Requirements:

• Be able to deal with group dynamics
• Be physically fit to work in a relatively rugged terrain
