Open Positions
Sojourn is an award-winning bike tour and multi-adventure company with a mission focused on people, passion, and places.
We are currently looking to hire for the following positions:
TOUR LEADERS
As a Sojourn tour leader, you and your co-leader will spend the tour engaging our guests and ensuring their safety and enjoyment. You will rise early each morning to attend to behind-the-scenes details and preparation and end each day late in the evening. You will need to be a jack of all trades (see below) and will serve as the face of the company while in the field. While the job is extremely fun for the right individual, it requires long hours on the job that are not always in the saddle of your bike. For the right person, the job might just be the best one you will ever have.
Do you have what it takes? Here’s the shortlist of critical attributes we’re looking for:
You…
o Enjoy interacting with people and possess exceptional customer service skills
o Have outstanding communication skills and are comfortable addressing a group
o Are energetic and function well without much downtime
o Are a competent road cyclist who can ride comfortably at 15-18 mph for 2-3 hours at a time
o Have basic bike mechanical abilities like changing a tire and adjusting brakes and derailleurs
o Have a current motor vehicle operator’s license in violation-free standing and are able to pass a DOT physical
o Are fit enough to repeatedly carry 30-50 lb luggage, often up flights of stairs
o Have an inherent curiosity with interest in history, geology, and/or the natural world
o Have an excellent sense of direction and map-reading skills
o Are a foodie, wine, or beer aficionado, and can put on a really good spread for 20 people
Wage & Benefits:
