Job Description

The Role:

We are seeking professional, charismatic Freelance Summer Mountain Leaders who excel in hospitality and "invisible" logistics. You won't just be taking people on a tour; you will be an emotionally intelligent leader, tailoring the activity to match their desires and producing a transformational experience.

Key Responsibilities:

Leading high-net-worth clients on day trips to Ben Nevis, Steall Waterfall, and Dun Deardail.

Operating a provided drone to capture simple, high-quality footage and hero shots of clients.

Managing all "on-the-hill" hospitality, ensuring client comfort and safety at all times.

Optional: Leading seperate "Wilderness Skill" sessions:

Fire lighting (firepit) Erecting shelters (tarp) Water purification (boiling)
What We Are Looking For:

Qualification: Valid "Mountain Leader" award (https://www.mountain-training.org/qualifications/walking/mountain-leader/#Entry%20requirements) and current Outdoor First Aid Certificate (minimum 16 hours).

Charisma & EQ: Ability to engage with a sophisticated, international clientele with discretion and emotional intelligence.

Drone Competency: A valid CAA Flyer ID is required (this is free, the test is free also, lasts 5 years). An A2 CofC is highly advantageous (we can support the right candidates in acquiring this).

Optional Survival Skills: Proficiency in "clean" survival skills (fire-lighting and water purification) although you will be taught all of these.

Mindset: A "service-first" attitude - you lead the way so the client doesn't have to think about the navigation, logistics, or the weather.

Why Join Us?

Creative Focus: We handle the editing; you just capture the raw beauty of the journey and send it to us.

High-End Environment: Work in a boutique firm that values precision and provides a high standard of service.

Mutual Respect: We expect you to be emotionally intelligent with our customers, and in return, we will be emotionally intelligent with our guides.
