We’re hiring two multi-talented humans who can switch seamlessly between inbox mastery and leading unforgettable, wellness-forward experiences in the mountains of Western NC.
If you’re the type who feels just as comfortable organizing a Google Drive folder as you do guiding a group through sun salutations on a mountaintop, you just might be our new hybrid yoga + admin assistant, and well… we can’t wait to meet you. 🤗
About Us:
Asheville Wellness Tours offers unique, curated mini-wellness-retreats in Asheville, NC with options that include lighthearted, wellness-forward experiences such as Yoga Hikes, Forest Bathing, Massage, Tarot, Goat Yoga, and much more.
We are a small business with a focus on crafting experiences that connect our guests more deeply to themselves, each other, and Asheville!
We are:
- Professional, warm, and guest-centered.
- Adaptable. Weather changes, guests change, schedules change. We breathe, adjust, and deliver.
- A start-up–style environment where roles evolve thoughtfully.
- Supportive and empowering. We want you to feel resourced, trusted, and valued.
- Fun & light-hearted. Yes, petting a goat is wellness.
About You:
You’ll thrive here if you…
- Light up at the little things. You find insane joy in details like color-coding a spreadsheet, dialing in a process, or making sure a guest’s experience flows seamlessly.
- Love the mission and the movement. You feel genuine excitement for helping people connect with nature, wellness, and Asheville, and you enjoy the natural ebb and flow of a seasonal, experience-based business.
- Are a warm, clear communicator who can hold space with kindness and hold boundaries with confidence.
- Teach yoga with heart. You’re grounded, welcoming, playful, and skilled at modifying for every body and ability.
- Think spreadsheets can be sexy. You love a good system and the satisfaction of seeing your organization ripple outward to support the whole team.
- Make confident, thoughtful decisions. And know when to ask questions or call for backup.
- See what needs doing and jump in. You’re not shy about offering ideas and you love being part of a collaborative, solution-oriented team.
- Bring humor, flexibility, and resilience when the weather changes, the plan shifts, or the unexpected shows up (because it will).
This is a seasonal position with potential for year-round work available for the right person.

There is autonomy, spaciousness, and flexibility, but the work and schedule are dictated by the bookings. If remote work and a variable schedule don’t genuinely excite you, trust that instinct.
