Join the New Hampshire State Parks Team!
We are looking for people that want to make a difference in the experience of visitors to New Hampshire State Parks. From assisting visitors to park maintenance, park employees are the key factor in success of our park system.
One of the best parts of being on the New Hampshire State Park team is that you get to work outdoors in some of the most extraordinary places in New Hampshire. But the most rewarding part of working in a state park is creating some of the best memories of kids and adults alike as they enjoy the outdoors and share these wonderful places.
