Educators, Naturalists, & Summer Coordinators
Short Description
Share your energy and enthusiasm by leading educational programs for children, school groups, locals, and visitors to Alaska. As a non-profit environmental education and stewardship organization, the CACS mission is to foster responsible interaction with our natural surroundings and to generate knowledge of the unique ecosystems of Kachemak Bay. Summer seasonal staff are employed in these four unique locations: the Wynn Nature Center (a 145-acre boreal forest preserve), Inspiration Ridge Preserve (a stunning mosaic of forest, bogs, meadows, ponds and creeks), Peterson Bay Field Station (a semi-rustic facility across Kachemak Bay and accessible only by boat), and Yurt on the Spit (exploration of invertebrate life living on and around the Homer harbor docks).
Timing: Most summer positions run from May 26th–September 1st, 2026 with a few ending slightly earlier due to the nature of the position.
Compensation: $19-21/hour depending on responsibilities, with shared housing in Homer provided ($22-24/hour without housing). Additional benefits include two weeks of paid training at the beginning of the season and 3 days of paid sick leave (including mental as well as physical health and family emergencies).
Applications are due January 12, 2026. To see the full position descriptions, application instructions, and more information about our organization, visit www.akcoastalstudies.org/employment
