About the role

We're looking for Weekend Trek Leaders based in Bengaluru. You'll lead Indiahikes trekking groups on our weekend treks. This won't interfere with your weekday work schedule. Before you take charge of a group, we'll train you thoroughly. Why being a Weekend Trek Leader can teach you unbeatable leadership skills Being a weekend trek leader at Indiahikes can give you leadership skills that no amount of learning at business schools can. That's because every time you lead a trekking group, you are dealing with a team of 20 new people from various backgrounds. You are also dealing with constant changes in the terrain, weather and the environment. Sometimes an elephant movement may force you to change your route. Sometimes it may rain nonstop through the weekend. Sometimes someone in the team may not be cooperative. These are real scenarios you'll face, and how you handle them shapes your leadership on the ground. Over time, this repeated practice builds confidence, communication skills, and the ability to think calmly under pressure — qualities that help you grow both personally and professionally. Not to mention, you are going to be leading groups in some of the most beautiful treks of South India.
