We love what we do. And are always on the lookout for like-minded people who share our passion for conserving the wilderness. Each job plays a big part in our shared purpose: to increase the world’s wilderness, together. With operations in eight African countries, we offer a wide array of life-changing career opportunities.
We are the pioneering collective increasing the world's iconic wilderness, bringing guests to discover the beating pulse of Earth's ultimate, untamed places.
With purpose at the heart of our culture, working for Wilderness is not just a job, and our successes have only been made possible thanks to the dedication and passion of our employees who continue to push the boundaries in conservation tourism.

Our core values
Passionate about hospitality
Passionate about hospitality
We are dedicated to authentic, genuine service and delivering the warmest hospitality with passion. We are humble, generous and empathetic towards everyone within our collective, whether we are welcoming and hosting guests, working alongside colleagues or collaborating with partners, communities or governments. We are inclusive and have fun expanding the world’s wilderness together, taking pride in sharing our incredible wild places with all who visit us. We set ambitious, industry-leading standards, then deliver on them over and over again, consistently exceeding expectations.
Purpose-driven
We exist to expand the world’s wilderness. Everything we do helps us achieve this purpose – from selling journeys, hosting guests and building camps to supporting communities and protecting wildlife. We are always on the lookout for new ways to increase and improve our positive impact. Every member of our collective – colleagues, guests, partners and stakeholders – understands their fundamental role in expanding the world’s wilderness, together. This deep commitment to making a difference is at the core of everything we do.
Respectful
This isn’t just a job, it’s our life’s work. Every day we set out to earn and retain the trust that has existed for decades between us and our collective, including our communities and governments. We act with honesty, transparency and integrity and we have deep respect for everyone we interact with, inside and outside the business, underpinned by our deep respect for the environment. We embrace diversity and inclusion and act with humility and care. We are fearlessly open and honest, always seeking the truth and the best for our collective.
Pioneering leaders
The drive to chart our own course has always been, and continues to be, the core of who we are. As a trusted industry leader, we are courageous, fighting for our cause; taking calculated risks to push the envelope. We are not afraid to embrace change, run with a new idea or speak our truth. That is what it means to lead, and we are leaders – every single one of us. Like true pioneers, we never stand still. We celebrate those spirited team members who use their autonomy to innovate, drive positive change and lead by example, so that every day we can find new ways to improve our operations and better care for our guests, our people, our communities and our wilderness.

What Our People Say
Keith Vincent
CEO
"What a remarkable journey it has been pioneering conservation and hospitality in Africa for 40 years and counting – largely thanks to our Wilderness family, who through hard work, resilience and passion, have kept us standing, and striving throughout. From humble beginnings in 1983, we have grown to become Africa’s leading conservation and hospitality company, with over 3 000 passionate employees, and more than 60 camps in 8 countries. No small feat.
Having been committed to Wilderness for over 20 years, I have never been more proud of the teams who have grown the company to where it is today.
Our goal is to double the amount of land we help protect by 2030 – having an even bigger impact on the world’s wildlife, wilderness and local communities. The more we grow, the more opportunities we create for passionate individuals, and the greater the positive impact we can make. Our future is bright. "
