Alaska Summer Jobs
Alaska is home to some of the largest stretches of wilderness in North America, including the U.S.’s largest National Park System unit, Wrangell-St.
Elias National Park & Preserve. The state is home to charismatic wildlife - moose, caribou, wolves, and bears - and to close-knit communities, including many of people who still live off the land, a rarity in the modern world.
Every year, many people travel north to work in the Alaskan tourism industry and enjoy Alaska’s great outdoors and unique culture. These Alaska summer jobs range from nature and adventure guides to seasonal biologists to cooks and hotel workers. The jobs are competitive and the work hard, but the experience of working in Alaska is worth it to the seasonal workers who return year after year. (If you came here seeking Alaska nursing jobs or teaching jobs in Alaska, then we've got bad news...you're in the wrong place!)
