Join the Windsure Crew

Love the ocean? Stoked on watersports? Craving summer life on the beach? Same here — and we’re always on the lookout for awesome humans who share the vibe.

Windsure Adventure Watersports has been part of the Vancouver beach scene since 1977, when our founder rolled up to Jericho with a few windsurf boards and a dream. We were Western’s Canada’s first and currently only windsurfing school - and now a go-to hub for windsurfing, paddleboarding, skimboarding, wing surfing, and wing foiling in Vancouver.

Working at Windsure is a mix of hard work, sunny skies, salty air, and seriously good times. If you’re passionate about watersports and want to spend your summer outside with an amazing team, we’d love to hear from you.
