Join Michigan DNR team for short-term, part-time or full-time work

Whether you are hoping to dip your toes into a new field, seeking a summer gig or ready to share years of comprehensive experience, the DNR has job opportunities available throughout the state.

This spring, we're looking for:

  • More than 1,300 summer park workers and many seasonal park rangers.
  • 30 seasonal park interpreters to lead activities and present fun programs tied to each park's unique natural and cultural resources as part of the explorer guide program.
  • Dozens of nature educators who can deliver engaging, hands-on programming for K-12 students at visitor centers and for the Nature Awaits fourth grade field trip program.

For many, working with the DNR is a unique and rewarding experience. Whether the duties are in an office, in the field or on the water, it’s about helping people connect with and enjoy our state’s natural resources and outdoor stories!
