We’re Hiring!

Have you ever imagined what it would be like to work at a Wellness Center like Willka T’ika?
Imagine waking up to the sounds of birds chirping in lush gardens;
Yoga and meditation practice whenever you feel inspired;
Organic farm-to-table vegetarian food prepared just for you;
Hikes to local Incan ruins and craft markets;
Meeting fascinating, blissed-out travelers!
Every week we receive messages from people interested in work, work-exchange, internships, or volunteer opportunities at Willka T’ika. We generally respond by explaining that we have a wonderful staff of 22 Quechua neighbors who have been working with us since 1994. In the tradition of the Andean principle of “ayni” or reciprocity everyone pitches in and helps with guest services, food preparation, housekeeping, gardening, and maintenance. As such, we have rarely needed outside help.
However, as we expand to attract more diverse individuals and groups from different countries, we are open to hiring someone that brings something unique to our team. Please see below for current opportunities.
