About the role

Nantahala Outdoor Center (NOC) invites you to join the Outdoor Leadership Intern program, a 400-hour field-based development experience for students pursuing outdoor recreation and related fields. Interns specialize in Rafting, Aerial Adventure, or Mountain Biking, while undergoing structured leadership training led by managers and senior leaders. This seasonal internship blends guiding with professional growth and risk management education.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
