Looking for an extraordinary experience for 2010?


Posted on Tuesday, August 11, 2009

How about a fresh adventure? A big challenge? A place to develop your personal and professional skills in the spectacular setting of the Victorian High Plains?

Each year Mittagundi provides an opportunity for six people to join our staff team and have the experience of a life time.

As a member of our team you get to live and work at Mittagundi, a remote and beautiful pioneer property in Victoria’s High Country. It is a simple life. You will be a crucial part of team delivering life changing experiences for young people on our Summer and Winter programs. We support you with great skills and courses like Wilderness First Aid, Management and Team training, Rafting & White water, 4WD, Chainsaw, plus a few others...
So. If you have a desire to live in a simple, honest and happy way, an urge to do something just a bit different, and a deep sense of the value of working with young people in challenging environments to achieve amazing outcomes this could be an opportunity for you. 

To make a great team we look for a diverse range of skills and experiences. In the past team members have included school leavers, uni students, teachers, outdoor ed professionals, engineers, and most of all just genuinely passionate people! There are no special boxes that you need to have ticked. Just a bit of energy and passion and the desire to 'give it a go'.

The position is for 12 months and in exchange for your awesome energy Mittagundi provides all your food and board (yes - you can eat as much as you like!), intensive training and skills development that continues for the whole year, and a little bit of cash to keep the wheels turning ($6000 per year). We know it ain't much but the experience is worth it.
