RECRUITING NOW FOR NUMEROUS START DATES IN THE UK, FRANCE & SPAIN!

Canoeing is at the heart of PGL and we have long recognised this sport as a great way to introduce children to the outdoors.

We offer a variety opportunities for qualified paddlers to introduce canoeing and Kayaking to our guests.

Whether you are looking for a career in the outdoor industry or just want to spend some time instructing your favourite activity, PGL has excellent opportunities for qualified and unqualified people.

If you currently hold your British Canoe Union (BCU) Trainee Level 2 Coach Award, you can assist with sessions. If you do not yet hold this qualification but are a competent paddler of BCU 3* standard, we can help you achieve this through our extensive training opportunities.

If you are a qualified BCU Level 2 Coach or above, you will be able to lead sessions and take on more senior roles in addition to consolidating your instructional skills, accumulating log book time and working towards higher level qualifications.

We run Trainee Level 2 Coach through to Level 3 coach training and assessment courses in the UK and France prior to and during the season.

The variety of our centre locations means plenty of opportunity to paddle during your free time, from flat and moving water in the UK, to sea kayaking on the French Med and adrenalin-busting white water in the French Alps and Ardeche.

We offer a competitive wage, full board residential package, free uniform, transport to resort from a UK port if you're working in France or Spain, training/qualification opportunities and more.
