About the Experience

For the past 53 years, Alaska Trophy Fishing Safaris has been providing world-class fishing guests with an incredible, authentic Alaskan bush experience. We’re a remote, fly-in fishing camp known for exceptional fishing, stunning wilderness, and a small, tight-knit team focused on delivering truly memorable guest experiences.

This is a guest-facing, hospitality-forward role. The hostesses are a big part of the “heart” of camp—setting the tone, welcoming guests, and helping create the warm, fun, professional atmosphere that keeps people coming back year after year.

We’re looking for hostesses who bring great energy, professionalism, warmth, and personality to camp every day—people our guests genuinely enjoy being around, talking with, and spending time with in a polished, upbeat environment.

If you love people, thrive in team settings, and want a once-in-a-lifetime summer adventure in Alaska, this could be the perfect fit.

Schedule

Up to 8 hours per day, split between:
Mornings (before guests head out to fish)
Afternoons/early evenings (before guests return, helping prepare for happy hour and dinner service)
This schedule allows for personal time mid-day while guests are on the river.

What You’ll Do

As a Camp Hostess, you’ll play a key role in guest experience and daily camp operations, including:

Welcoming and hosting guests
Assisting with meal service and dining tent operations, preparing lunches guests/guides to enjoy on the river
Light food prep and kitchen support
Maintaining cleanliness of the kitchen and guest dishes
Keeping guest and common areas clean, organized, and inviting
Helping create a warm, fun, high-energy, professional camp atmosphere
Pitching in wherever needed to keep camp running smoothly

Accommodations & Living Conditions

You’ll live on-site in authentic, heated Alaskan wall tents
The two hostesses will room together
This is a remote, fly-in camp—no quick trips to town
You’ll be living and working with a small, close-knit team in a true wilderness setting

Travel & Expenses Covered

We cover:

All flights within Alaska
Hotel transfers and hotels in Alaska (as needed)
Camp accommodations
All food while in Alaska

At the conclusion of the season, you’ll also receive a $500 travel credit to help offset airfare between your hometown and Alaska.

Compensation & Value

Guaranteed earnings of no less than $5,000 for the season
Earnings can be higher based on bookings, tips, and performance
Estimated total value (compensation, tips, and benefits): $10,000–$12,000+ for the season
Room and board provided
Travel and lodging in Alaska covered
On your personal time, enjoy world-class fishing, hiking, sightseeing, and exploring Alaska

Must be at least 18 and legally eligible to work
Fun, witty, energetic, and genuinely positive personality
Professional, polished, guest-ready appearance and demeanor
Comfortable being front-facing with guests in a hospitality setting
Warm, engaging, and confident in social situations
Strong character, good judgment, and a team-first attitude
Reliable, adaptable, and able to thrive in a close-knit, remote environment
Able to handle physical work and active days
Hospitality, restaurant, lodge, or camp experience is a plus (but not required)

Extra skills that are a plus (but not required):

Baking or dessert prep
Musical talent (guitar, singing, etc.)
Barista or beverage service experience
Event hosting, MC, or guest engagement experience
Photography or social media content skills
Strong organization and “camp mom” energy

Dates (Flexible)

Start: As early as early June (June is primarily camp set-up in a relaxed and fun atmosphere as staff focuses on preparing for a great guest experience, with first guests arriving at the end of June). We’re flexible on start dates for the right candidates.
End: As late as late August. We’re willing to be flexible to accommodate college schedules and similar commitments.
