We are currently hiring Zipline Guides and Guest Service Agents for our upcoming season. Please send resumes to jobs@zipkokanee.com
Successful candidates are people who enjoy working in a fast-paced, fun, professional, and team-oriented work environment. Our zipline season is from May-October, however, some positions start in June and end after September long weekend. Shifts are conducted at our zipline site, which is located 25 minutes from Nelson, so own transportation is a MUST for all employees.

We zip rain or shine.
