    The Office Team

    What can you expect at the Wilderness Office

    Would you like to join the Wilderness Scotland team? Do you have great attention to detail, a passion for outstanding service and a love of adventure? Is being based in the Cairngorms National Park a bit of a dream location? 

    If the answer to these questions is a YES then keep on reading.

    Based from an incredible, modern, purpose built, warehouse style office in Aviemore in the Cairngorms National Park, we offer a special combination of interesting roles, flexible working, career opportunity and a supportive culture in which you will thrive as an individual and team member. Whilst the pandemic temporarily stalled our growth, we are looking to build our team for the future. Not only that, we have also been recognised as the 8th Best Small UK Workplace & 6th Best Small UK Workplace for Women in the 2018 Great Place to Work awards scheme rising to the UK’s  6th Best Small Workplace in 2020. We were also awarded Excellence in Wellbeing in 2020.

    More recently we were shortlisted for two categories in the 2023 Highlands & Islands Thistle AwardsBest Outdoor or Adventure Experience and Climate Action awards.  We won both, which is testament to our unwavering march to make our vision a reality and to the behaviours that we live by each day within our business.

    Wilderness Scotland is a company whose aim is to break new ground and set the worldwide standard for what adventure travel should be. We commit with a passion to providing our customers with the most inspiring experiences of their lives, ensuring our experiences are delivered sustainably, promoting the value of wild places, setting new standards for tourism experiences and creating a rewarding, meaningful and truly fun place to work.

    When you join the Wilderness team, it is more than just a job. You will be part of a dynamic team that are always seeking new ways in which we can improve. You will thrive in this fast paced environment but you will also be encouraged to bring new ideas and enthusiasm to the role and the company as a whole. You can read a bit more about us in our Culture Book to get a real feel for what we are about.

    While we have a lot of fun at Wilderness Scotland, our team is 100% focused on delivering 5 Star world-class client experiences. As such, you will bring a professional and high-energy approach with an unwavering focus in all aspects of the client travel experience.
