🌲 Nellim

The employment starts in late November and typically lasts until the end of March. The exact duration depends on the location, as well as your experience and educational background.

We also recruit guides for the Christmas season, so shorter employment periods are possible. If you are a student or looking for a shorter work period, we encourage you to apply.

Your role and placement will be based on your skills, language abilities, and interests – we are above all looking for the right people to join our team.
