We’re seeking passionate Experiential Educators to lead residential and expedition-based programs ranging from 3 days to 6 weeks.

As a facilitator, you’ll co-create immersive experiences that leave lasting impact. You’ll work closely with students in natural settings, guiding them through meaningful challenges and reflective practices that promote growth and connection.

You might be:

• An experienced outdoor educator looking for a fresh environment

• A youth worker drawn to nature’s transformative power

• A teacher or counsellor seeking deeper impact

• A mentor, coach, or ministry leader who values relational depth

We’re looking for people who:

• Bring energy, humility, and curiosity to their work

• Are strong role models who inspire and connect authentically

• Have a deep appreciation for the outdoors and its ability to change lives

Essential Requirements

• Demonstrated experience facilitating groups (e.g. youth work, teaching, mentoring, coaching, outdoor ed)

• Current Driver’s License

• QLD Working with Children Check (Blue Card)

• Certificate IV in Outdoor Leadership or equivalent

• Remote or Wilderness First Aid certification (or willingness to obtain)​​

Why Higher Ground?

Because here, facilitation is a craft —and we invest in your growth, not just your output.
Because you’ll join a close-knit, values-driven team that believes in the power of nature and the meaningfulness of great facilitation.

Because we’re building something rare and special—and if you’ve been searching for a place where your work truly matters, this might be it.
