How campgrounds are run in Prince Edward Island
Jobs PEI
Tourism PEI staffs its eight provincial campgrounds. Advertised provincial jobs appear on Jobs PEI. Search for park maintenance, Tourism PEI, seasonal, labourer, grounds and park names.
Seasonal Jobs Registry
Islanders can join a registry for seasonal work in park maintenance, forestry and general labour. An application stays valid for one year. You are contacted only if a suitable job comes up.
Student positions
Provincial parks run a separate student competition each spring. You must be a full-time student returning to school in the fall. The 2026 competition closed 31 March 2026.
Parks Canada
PEI National Park hires for Cavendish and Stanhope through its job page and GC Jobs, and offers local job alerts. No host programme was found for PEI.
Community and private campgrounds
St. Peter's Bay runs its own campground, and private parks such as Twin Shores and KW Green Park hire directly. Ask each operator whether a job is paid, volunteer or a site exchange.
Paid jobs, volunteer hosting and contracts
Paid seasonal jobs exist with Tourism PEI, Parks Canada, St. Peter's Bay and private campgrounds such as Twin Shores. No volunteer hosting, site-for-work exchange or current campground operating tender was verified; tenders are posted on the province's tender search.
