We are looking for individuals that are independent minded and interested in providing Escape Adventures with their best effort. This looks different for each student hired as it will be dependent on their age, maturity and level of experience. They need to be able to ride a bike with confidence on trails from gravel to highly technical. This means we have some Coaches that ride the beginner and intermediate trails and others that ride the more advance trails. We need both types of Coaches.
We hire Gr 8s as volunteers and ask that they commit to 2 weeks of the 2020 season (March Break to end of October). Gr 9s and older are hired as paid Coaches. Typical pay is minimum wage – $13.85 until end of May; $14.60 for the rest of 2020.
Beneficial Additions:
- St. John Ambulance Emergency First Aid 1 Day Course
- High Five North Van Rec Course
- NCCP Level 1
- PMBI – Professional Mountain Biking Instructor Certificate

I encourage students to act now if they are interested in working for Escape. Last year, we received many resumes in May and June. By then, Coaches are hired and training is starting.
