Freewheeling Adventures is actively recruiting for the 2024 season. We have been facilitating international world-class experiences to our guests for over 35 years – all based out of our headquarters in rural Hubbards, NS. This means our small team has to adapt to a variety of roles in a unique, seasonally fast-paced and exciting environment, where our well-practiced procedures and flexible attitude help to deliver the highest level of service possible while clearly communicating every detail to every relevant party; every step of the way.
We love what we do, and the places we go, and are excited to share them with our guests. We are family, friends, and community. Whether you’re looking to join the team as a trip leader, tour support person, seasonal or full-time office staff, etc – if you are detail oriented, service driven, authentic, and passionate about sharing joy and fun with others – we want to meet you! Please get in touch via our application forms below, or anytime via phone call or email.
We are located on the Aspotogan peninsula, 10 minutes from Hubbards, NS, or about 40 minutes from Halifax. Our office is relaxed, positive, friendly, and remote enough that you will need a car (or bicycle) to get here unless you live very close by.
