Turn your passion for outdoor adventures into unforgettable experiences for Club Urban Diversion

As an Adventure Engineer™ (AE), you aren't just an event host—you engineer memorable experiences and build community for our club! You’ll use your passion for the outdoors to lead and co-create unique events for our active member community.  More important is that we do not run like a tour operator, you get to know the members and they become family and friends.  The excursions we choose to lead are different every month, so you need to come with amazing ideas, and some great experiences to share.

• Independent self starter: For example we have a CUA for Yosemite but Have not even started recurring public facing experiences.  Ideally our AE would take 100% ownership of this or other revenue producing plans 

• Host & Guide Events: Lead single-day adventures (hikes, kayaking, city socials) and multi-day outdoor trips (Tahoe ski weekends, Yosemite backpacking, Death Valley campouts) 

• Event Creation & Planning: Help brainstorm, design, and market new event series aligned with your personal outdoor interests

• Day-of Execution: Manage gear loading/staging, grocery shopping, vendor coordination, and member communication on-site and via social channels 

• Community Engagement: Deliver unexpected delight, foster social connections among members, and maintain regular communication with our host management team
