Position Summary:
We are looking for a windsurfing instructor to join our energetic and outdoor-loving team!

There is also an opportunity to run or help run workshops on various intermediate/ advanced topics (harness, footstraps, shortboard, foiling, tricks) as well as teach private lessons. As such, the candidate’s skills must be commensurate with these topics. We are very open to accepting out of country explorers to our team.
