Job Type : Fixed Term - Full Time

About the role

Our team at Walter Peak is looking for a new team member who is excited about getting our guests up close and personal to a real-life rural experience. If you have experience hosting as a Tour Guide, or a background in livestock farming and want to dip your toe into the tourism industry, this could be the job for you.

Typical day

A typical day will see you combining your passion for tourism & agriculture with your customer service skills and getting hands on with the rural side of Walter Peak. You’ll host visitors on our popular farm tour product, and we’ll provide full training so that you can demonstrate farm practices such as sheep shearing and dog handling to our groups of guests.

When you’re not hosting visitors, you’ll be helping the rural team to ensure immaculate presentation of the grounds / farm and ensuring our animals stay at optimum health. We have 150ha of land that looks out over Lake Whakatipu where we are focused on planting native trees and allowing our guests to learn more about our commitment to conservation.

Responsibilities

  • Host visitors on our popular farm tour product and demonstrate farm practices such as sheep shearing and dog handling.
  • Help the rural team ensure immaculate presentation of the grounds / farm and ensure animals stay at optimum health.
  • Engage with guests up to 200 people, delivering engaging and informative presentations.
  • Support the rural team with general maintenance and guest service duties as required.

Qualifications

  • At least 1 year in a similar tourism role or 1 year experience within the farming industry.
  • Experience shearing sheep & dog handling preferred.
  • Confidence speaking in front of up to 200 people.
  • Valid driver’s licence.
  • Team‑player traits – someone who is keen to get stuck into rural life and help out wherever needed.
  • Benefits

  • Full‑time permanent position with guaranteed fortnightly hours.
  • Medical insurance cover.
  • Free Cardrona x Treble Cone ski / bike pass.
  • Invite a friend to experience RealNZ’s unforgettable adventures at a discount or for free (white water rafting, Te Anau Glowworm Caves, Milford, Doubtful Sound, Rakiura).
  • Ski and bike season passes.
  • Company

    RealNZ is a conservation business enabled by tourism. We’re helping the world, one guest at a time, fall in love with conservation. We channel a guest‑centric approach that fuels our genuine promise to deliver Aotearoa’s most unforgettable experiences.
