Three Career Changes for Individuals Who Love the Great Outdoors

The working life is a long one, so it is essential to find a career that you enjoy. It can be difficult to work in an industry when you have no love or passion for it, and this is often why someone will decide to change careers after some time. This can make working a lot easier, especially when you choose to create a career based on one of your passions.

For instance, if you spending many of your weekends enjoying time outside, then it might be wise to look for a job related to the great outdoors. There are numerous roles that can satisfy this passion, and this post has listed three of the best options for you to consider.

Outdoor Activity Instructor

With a passion for the outdoors, especially if you enjoy keeping active, then becoming an outdoor instructor might be the career change you are after. This role will see you leading groups of people through a variety of outdoor activities, which could include archery, climbing, kayaking, and more. It is a particularly rewarding role as you can share your passion for the outdoors and watch as others discover this joy, too.

However, there are certain requirements you must be aware of when you are considering this particular career change. It can be a very physically demanding job at times, so it is vital that you prioritize your fitness so you can be healthy enough to succeed in this type of career. You should also have leadership and people skills as you will be conversing with and leading others daily.

There will also be qualifications you should work towards for this role, such as a CPR certification and fitness.

Hunting Guide

A hunting guide role can be a suitable choice if you already have an interest in this, maybe as a hobby. You would be in charge of leading expeditions; this includes finding suitable locations, navigating the terrain, ensuring safety, and so on. A big part of this is also wildlife identification; you must know the different animal species in your area as well as their behaviors to ensure you hunt ethically.

The level of physical fitness that is required in this job can vary depending on the type of animal that is being hunted. For example, hunting pheasants won’t be as physically demanding as it would be to hunt deer. It doesn’t hurt to be more fit, though. As for a formal education, this wouldn’t hurt to have either. A first aid and CPR qualification will be required.

Other jobs in the hunting industry are available, too, if becoming a guide isn’t your ideal. You could look for jobs in the hunting gear sector, for example, especially if you would rather not work outdoors all of the time.

Forester

The final job in this post for outdoor lovers is that of a forester. This career path is especially of interest for individuals who want to take care of trees, vegetations, and wildlife; helping the environment is a big pro. As a forester, you would be trained to conserve, maintain, and protect forests and other areas, such as public parks. Those who take this role might also act as guides and rangers.

Foresters require unique skills to do the job well. These skills include attention to detail and critical thinking, both of which will see the forester classify forest specimens and offer advice to conserve the lands. Due to the nature of these skills, most will start their careers with a bachelor’s degree in forest management. It is also encouraged to complete additional programs approved by the Society of American Foresters (SAF).

If you are looking for a career change to pursue the great outdoors, then any of the three roles mentioned in this post could be the one for you.
