Resort Conditions

Working at a Winter Resort means no two days are the same, and that's part of the adventure! You’ll get to experience a variety of unique locations, from cozy lodges to scenic mountain-top venues only accessible by chairlift. Be prepared to embrace the elements; whether it's bluebird skies, fresh snowfall, or the infamous coastal rain. Expect to navigate multi-level lodges, steep stairways, and outdoor areas where the terrain can be sloped, snowy, muddy, or slippery, so good footwear is essential, indoors and out. Walking through large, icy parking lots is also part of the daily journey. If you love fresh air, stunning views, and a workplace that keeps you on your toes, this is the spot for you!

Mt. Washington is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

Join us at Mt. Washington Alpine Resort and help create exceptional experiences that our guests will cherish for a lifetime!
