Job Posting - Tour Guides

Throughout our province, BC Hydro has developed and maintains a wide range of recreational areas
as part of our efforts to balance your energy needs with the preservation of the natural environment.
BC Hydro's Visitor Centres aim to educate visitors on hydro-electricity, electrical safety and energy
conservation, and to tell the story of BC Hydro in the region. Tour Guides play an important role at
these visitor centers in helping to educate the public, and carrying out other research and project
functions.

Our ideal candidates for the Powerhouse at Stave Falls Visitor Centre would have an interest in electricity,
customer service, travel / tourism, as well as a zest for learning and an ability to translate these learning's to our
visitors. As tour guides, you act as an ambassador for our company and are a primary resource for
sharing knowledge on how electricity is generated, the history and construction of the generating
station/dam, and BC Hydro's current initiatives, services and programs, including environmental
programs and local capital projects.

* This is a part-time employment opportunity starting February 17, 2014 and ending October 17,
2014. Hours vary depending on candidate availability, visitor center hours, and scheduled tours.
Typically, successful candidates will work 20 to 30 hours per week.
* The Powerhouse at Stave Falls Visitor Centre is located at 31338 Dewdney Trunk Road, Mission, B.C and is
open weekdays and weekends. The successful incumbents must be available to work on
weekends and holidays.
* Preference will be given to candidates that are familiar with the local community and visitor
centre, candidates that are enrolled or have completed a post-secondary tourism program, and/or
students enrolled in an electrical trade, technology or engineering post-secondary program.
* Ideal candidates will have a basic knowledge of the operation, construction practices and
systems/equipment involved in a generating station, or will quickly acquire this knowledge upon
starting employment. An interest in the environment and history is also considered an asset.
* Completion of an in-house training program is required upon hire.
* This position will be advertised internally and externally concurrently.
* Similar opportunities will be advertised for the BC Hydro Visitor Centres in Revelstoke and Hudson's Hope in the late January
2014.
