Job Description

Imagine spending time in some of Michigan's most beautiful destinations? These part- and full- time seasonal positions are perfect for those laying the foundation for a career in natural resources, keeping busy in retirement and/or wanting to spend their summer in Michigan state parks, boating facilities, state forest campgrounds and other outdoor spaces.

Join the more than 1,300 seasonal park workers hired each spring/summer/fall! You'll have the opportunity to shape the customer experience all while learning valuable skills and working as part of a team.

Join a legacy! Many DNR employees started their careers as seasonal park workers and have since transitioned to fulfilling roles as rangers, park supervisors, accounting assistants, trail coordinators, and many more.

These positions will be covered by UAW or MESA bargaining units depending on the job duties
