Content Team

On-field Writer

We are looking for passionate On-Field Writers to join our growing Content Team. This exciting position offers the opportunity to go on some of the most extreme and remote treks across the Indian Himalayan Region (Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim, Ladakh, Jammu and Kashmir and Uttarakhand). If you are someone with itchy feet who loves to translate experiences into words and has an eye for detail, we would love to hear from you and have you on our team!

Roles and Responsibilities:

We are a learning-based organization and strive to create as much of an information database for any adventure sports enthusiast as possible. While on-field learning is extremely important, it is our attempt to provide as many written resources and create written informative guides for trekkers of all levels to refer to so they can make an informed decision about their outdoor choices. Creating content for adventure is not only about describing the generic beauty of the mountains but involves painting a true and unique picture of each trail/activity - recognizing and appreciating the individual personality of each fold in the big wide Himalayas. We have the position of an On-Field Writer because we believe the outdoors are best described when experienced first-hand. Authenticity in the narration and sharing of experiences is of utmost importance to make the outdoor community stronger, safer and more accessible. Being mindful of the tone, style of writing and structure representative of brand identity, it is the role of the content team to make our products speak for the brand.

Skills:

This position involves extensive travel across trekking routes of varying difficulty levels. Sound fitness is essential. Prior experience in trekking and mountaineering along with a fair bit of knowledge in mountain terminology are preferred. And, of course, the skill to articulate experiences to make them as informative, relatable and authentic as possible is mandatory. It is also important to be skilled at secondary research as well as gathering data of various kinds on-trail so as to equip our readers with correct

Adventure Exposure:

No matter what team you are in, we encourage our team members to take time off and explore the adventures we hold. We believe All Work and All Play makes for an exciting life.


#

Freedom to Experiment:

You have the freedom to conceptualize and experiment with new projects in your existing role and try your hand at new roles. We have had Content Writers become Assistant Trek Leaders, Designers become On-field Photographers and so much more.


#

Good Work Life Balance

Work is important but so is your life outside of it. We love watching our team members pursue passions and hobbies outside of work hours and go out of our way to help them in their learning journeys.


#

No Hierarchy

Here, everyone plays a role at a time. The CEO has become the belayer and the COO has been assistant to the Expedition Leader. We are not suggesting chaos where we don't know who does what but we wear different hats as the situation demands and once you are there with a hat, you wear it with pride.


#

No Micro-Management

We do not believe in micro-management. It hampers creativity, dampens the spirit and makes for bad work culture. Once you are on a project, we encourage you to own it. And if you need any help along the way, we are always here.


#

Excellent Growth Opportunity

With freedom to experiment comes great exposure, learning and growth. Our people have grown from helpers to cooks to mountaineers, from content writers to heading marketing and communications, from designers to social media executives and so much more.
