Employment Opportunities with MIR Corporation

Thank you for your interest in our company. Since 1986 MIR has built a reputation as a leader in pioneering travel to destinations considered obscure, exotic, remote, difficult and even controversial.

The company's mission is to profitably provide group and independent travelers with rich cultural travel experiences while delivering the highest level of service. We bring travelers into intimate contact with the people and cultures of Russia, Ukraine, Central Asia (and all the independent countries of the former Soviet Union), Central/East Europe, Iran, China and Mongolia and promote peace and understanding through travel.

MIR is a highly specialized (and growing) 21-year-old international travel company serving an extremely diverse and developing clientele ranging from major art and natural history museums to eclectic special interest groups to outrageously well-traveled individuals. We seek highly motivated, well-rounded and career-oriented individuals passionate about our destinations to join our team.
