Life in Seward, Alaska

Seward is a postcard-perfect town of about 2,700 people on the shore of Resurrection Bay, roughly 2.5 hours from Anchorage. It’s the gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park and home to the famous Mount Marathon race, the Alaska SeaLife Center and endless hiking, fishing and wildlife-watching. Summer days stretch to nearly 20 hours of daylight – so there’s plenty of time to explore after work. Bears, bald eagles, puffins, sea lions and orcas are your new neighbours!

What We’re Looking For

• University students aged 18–25 eligible for the J-1 Work & Travel USA program
• Conversational English and a positive, guest-focused attitude
• Good physical stamina – you’ll be on your feet, bending and lifting up to ~11 kg
