How to Find Remote Jobs in the RV Industry + 7 Hiring Right Now

If you’ve ever been so enamored with living the RV life that you wanted to directly be part of the industry, then you already know how tough it can be to find a remote job in the RV industry.

For instance, if you’re a megafan of a particular RV manufacturer, their website might be extremely old and you have to dig around to learn that they only list careers on an obscure jobs site. Another challenge is that most roles are in-person, which may feel strange since the entire industry supports a roving lifestyle. 

Being an onsite porter here and there is fabulous when living nomadically, but RV life absolutely does not mean you can’t maintain a high level full time job, even when it is difficult to hunt them down inside the industry.

So today, we’ve set out to find current job openings that might be of interest, and then we’ll share some best practices with hunting down these remote jobs in the RV industry.

Search for Remote Jobs in the RV Industry on the RVer Job Exchange

Just because you’re here on this page doesn’t mean you’re ultra familiarized with the RVer Job Exchange, powered by Escapees RV Club, but we launched it to answer the unique challenge of finding full time jobs that can be done by those of us enjoying RV living.

There is a shortcut to finding roles that are specifically remote:

  • Visit RVerJobExchange.com/jobs
  • On the left sidebar, scroll down to “Job Location Type”
  • Select “Remote” and let the magic happen
For example, there is a current role listed that could be up your alley, a Community Coordinator role that is currently part time, but states hours may increase over time, and less than a year of experience is required. It could be a meaningful way to get your foot into the door in the industry!

7 open roles in the RV industry, does one fit you?

When you search for blog posts on this topic, what you usually get is vague guidance like “start a business” or “just freelance.” Insulting. Instead, we offer actual open roles for you to consider:

Airstream is a brand we all know and love. They’re looking for someone with experience in React Native mobile app dev using Redux, cloud architecture knowledge, experience with technologies like PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and of course Git.

The ER partner collaborates with market leadership to provide coaching and guidance for ER matters, investigates employee concerns, ensures activity is captured in the case management system, and identifies emerging trends to develop solutions. They also build and maintain relationships with regional HR leadership and will identify potential company liability.

3. Data Scientist at Camping World

Camping World appears to be one of the few industry names that consistently considers remote workers. Responsibilities include working with pricing and inventory teams, using Python, SQL, and R to analyze data, identifying and cleaning data sources, and exploring new datasets for insights.

This job involves documenting processes, communicating development status, leading system development projects, managing programmers, and creating and managing the Application budget. Caveat: Lippert listings say “Remote” with a large red house denoting the option, but on the actual listings, it is less clear.

This role is focused on improving service turn around times and maintaining high standards of customer service. The role involves working with both operations and sales teams to ensure timely communication and a positive reflection of the brand. Again, Lippert’s site is slightly unclear, so don’t apply until you’re certain it is a fit.

6. IT Architect at Camping World.

The responsibilities of a key member of the Enterprise Architecture team include designing and documenting application architectures, educating business and technical teams about solutions, and acting as a liaison between product owners and technical teams.

7. Remote RV Technician at Camping World.

This is a customer service representative role for Good Sam Elite Members. Responsibilities include answering calls, providing technical information and assistance with RV accessories, connecting members with repair facilities and roadside assistance, and performing follow-up to ensure technical issues are resolved.

Other ways to find remote jobs in the RV Industry

If you’re looking to break into the industry or transition your existing skills into a role where you might better tap your passions, there are ways to make sure you’re in line first.

  • Start by researching the companies you most admire in the RV industry

One by one, visit their website, find them on LinkedIn, and track down any social media accounts that you can. What you’re looking for is where they list their open roles. We’ve found this to be somewhat inconsistent, and the large brands are easy to explore, while medium- to small-brands may be more tricky to track down. Use a free tool like Huntr to keep your job search organized.

  • Revisit their Careers Page Weekly

Especially if they don’t allow you to set up email alerts. (This could apply to their LinkedIn Page or wherever else you found their jobs)

  • Consider competitors

If you find a brand offering ample remote jobs, go find their direct competitor because there is a good chance they’re hiring as well.

  • Find out if the company is part of a larger brand

This may allow you to monitor all in the same spot. For example, Thor Industries has a careers page, and they are comprised of Jayco, Thor Motor Coach, Tiffin Motorhomes, Airstream, Heartland, Highland Ridge RV, Keystone, Dutchmen, Crossroads, Redwood, KZ, and Venture. That’s a lot of brands under one roof, so be looking for these types of shortcuts by getting to know company ownership.

  • Another option is to consider Europe

Europe seems to be slightly more remote-work forward than America, and in many nations, a work Visa isn’t all that tough to obtain if needed at all. For example, Goboony is looking for English-speaking support agents for their UK clients who are renting locals’ RVs (pretty fascinating)!

  • Get really really good at Google.

Some search parameters to consider are “[your job title] remote in RV industry” or get more specific and add “[your job title] remote at RV manufacturer.” All businesses have the same core needs, so there’s a high chance that with some deep diving online, you can find your current job title inside the industry.

Overall, we want to affirm that finding remote jobs in the RV industry is not as easy as it should be, and although we’re working hard to do our part at the RVer Job Exchange, it really does take a little creativity to break into the industry you’re such a fan of. But now you have a roadmap to amplify your success, and we’re rooting for you!
