Based in Melbourne, we specialise in premium alpine adventures across Australia and the Himalayas. Our trips are physically demanding, mentally expansive, and meticulously designed to push people beyond their comfort zones.We’re not a tourism company. We’re a human performance tribe. Our participants are business professionals and high-achievers who train together for 2 to 12 months before stepping into the mountains with us. We guide them not just across landscapes, but through personal thresholds - fostering resilience, community, and growth in the raw, wild beauty of the natural world. If you’re passionate about connecting people with nature, coaching others to unlock their potential, and building lifelong bonds through hard-earned experiences, you might be a perfect fit.The RoleWe’re on the hunt for exceptional humans to join our Guide Trainee Program - a 9-15 month pathway to becoming a lead guide with Mountain Tribe.

You’ll help facilitate training hikes and alpine mountain training weekends, support build-up training logistics, engage with participants both online and in person, and eventually help guide treks and climbing expeditions in both Australia and the Himalayas.We’ll provide significant in-house and external training - including fitness certifications, alpine skills courses, and specialised coaching development.
