  Southeast Exposure Outdoor Adventure Center in Ketchikan Alaska  
   

Working for Southeast Exposure
in 2010

  • New guides need to be available May 1 for the season

  • Guide candidates have extensive experience in two of our three areas - zipping and climbing, paddling or biking.

  • Dock representatives are outgoing, consistent and fit

------------------------------------------------ 

If you are considering applying you need to know the following: We have been in business since 1986. SE Exposure is 14 ½ miles north of town in Clover Pass. We moved to 37 Potter Rd. in 2003. Our site is on five acres including waterfront. We do five tours: Tatoosh Islands Sea Kayaking, Eagle Island Sea Kayaking-both single and double, Clover Pass Bike, Ropes and Zipline (and Climbing Wall), and Bike and Zip Combo.

We do all kayak bike and ropes course training in house. We require you to arrive with an eight hour certification in Advanced First Aid and CPR at minimum (no online certifications). Guides participate in an intensive one week in house training for all tours. We have many returning guides each year, a good number of them are local Ketchikan people.

Our trips range from 3 hrs to 4 ½ hours for the guests, but for you, you work 2-4 trips per day back to back, and you will spend 2-2 ¼ hours with each group of guests. Season is from April 26-September 26. We are flexible in these dates for some people. Hope this helps!


Things that we are looking for in a guide or a dock representative:

You can think on your feet. You take initiative and pitch in, and follow routine procedures.

You have physical stamina, fitness and no potential physical limitations. You can lift and carry 40 pounds.

You have unflagging politeness, honesty, sense of humor and respect for all others.

You love the outdoors, and don't mind the rain, and you acquire good raingear.

You have absolute respect for your surroundings, equipment and the environment.

We are interviewing via phone calls and checking references, so we need a current resume and two references. We will be listening to you and considering the above - that is, your apparent quality of character.

We have housing available for reasonable rates.
