Job Description

Overview

In partnership with a second, and possibly third Leader, you will lead a Fire of 8-12 Young Explorers. The Knowledge Leader should combine science and creative activities to help Young Explorers better understand the unique wilderness they explore, and develop curiosity for the future. To achieve this, it is the responsibility of the Senior Knowledge Leader, Knowledge Leaders and the collaboration of all leaders to design and deliver a programme of inspirational, educational projects.

We are looking for applicants who are:

  • Able and passionate about leading, inspiring, and facilitating sessions with young people.
  • Comfortable spending extended periods in remote and sometimes harsh environments.
  • Able to commit to all pre-expedition training events.

As a charity, all Leader positions are undertaken on a voluntary basis and Leaders join for the intrinsic value of adventure, education, and personal development of young people. You do not have to fundraise to lead on our expeditions.
