How to Apply:
If you’re ready to join our team and lead the mushroom movement, send us a cover letter detailing your most memorable conversation with a plant and why you believe you’re the chosen one for this role.
Nature Lion is an equal-opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
A Mushroom Whisperer is our mycological maestro, responsible for the care and communication with our mushroom varieties. They ensure our fungi are flourishing and that our mushroom-based products are potent and pure for our customers.
While a background in mycology or botany is a huge plus, we’re also looking for that special someone who has an innate connection with nature and a passion for the wellness industry. If you can convince us you’re the mushroom messiah we’ve been searching for, experience can take a backseat.
In the world of Nature Lion, absolutely! We believe that a happy mushroom is a healthy mushroom. So, if you’re comfortable giving pep talks to Pink Oysters or serenading the Shiitakes, you might just be the one.
Think “forest chic.” Comfortable enough to trek through the wilderness, but stylish enough to be featured on our Instagram. Bonus points if your outfit is mushroom-themed!
Sure, if you’re a fun-guy or fun-girl who loves mushrooms and has a knack for nurturing plants (or fungi, in this case), we’d love to hear from you.
Taste-testing is a crucial part of the job! You’ll be the first to try our new mushroom-infused coffee varieties and our latest batch of mushroom powders. Your palate will pave the way for product development.
We embrace all mushroom preferences here at Nature Lion. Whether you’re team Chaga, Lion’s Mane, or any other variety, there’s a place for you in our fungal family.
If you dream in spores and wake up with visions of mycelium networks, it’s a sign. If you find yourself giving unsolicited advice to wild mushrooms during hikes, it’s more than a sign. It’s destiny.
Brush up on your mushroom knowledge, practice your communication skills with local flora, and maybe bring a mushroom-themed treat to share. We appreciate a candidate who goes the extra spore—I mean, mile.
The sky’s the limit! Or should we say, the canopy’s the limit? As Nature Lion grows, you could branch out into roles like Head of Mycelium Management, Spore Spread Strategist, or even Chief Fungal Officer.
Send your resume, cover letter, and a short video of your best mushroom pep talk to whisperer@naturelion.ca. We can’t wait to see your spore-tacular skills!
