Aoraki Mount Cook, New Zealand Trojan Holdings Ltd Full time

Ever dreamed of working in a National Park with the wide expanse of the Milky Way forming part of your office? Are you excited by the prospect of the heavens above you in a way that can only be seen in the Aoraki Mackenzie Dark Sky Reserve? If you are an inspiring, energetic, passionate and outgoing astronomy enthusiast with excellent communication skills, we want to hear from you

We are searching for a dynamic, go-getting **Stargazing Guide** to come in and make their mark. Positive and upbeat by nature with genuine charisma and a natural ability to lead both small boutique tours and large groups, this is a development opportunity that will ensure your star keeps rising.

- Highly effective interpersonal communication skills, leading to positive interactions with hotel staff, management, and guests
- The knowledge and experience to produce high quality work in a consistent and reliable manner in support of Hermitage’s standards and processes.
- A confident and collaborative personality with a working style that encourages client, customer feedback and demonstrates a high level of professionalism at all times.
- The ability to build, maintain and follow all safety processes in relation to each activity and tour
- A strong sense of responsibility, commitment, and reliability with the flexibility to work across different tours and products

**Further Information**:

- All applicants must be legally entitled to work in New Zealand
- Ideally applicants must be available for at least a 12-month period to be considered, due to the training required.
- A full, clean NZ driver’s license with a Class 2/4 and P endorsement would be very advantageous
