  • Flexible Scheduling: Utilize the freedom to set your own schedule to best meet the operational needs of peak periods, including Preseason, Events, Christmas break, and March break.

What You Bring

  • High-Output Kitchen Experience: Proven experience working in fast-paced, high-volume culinary environments.
  • Menu Development Skills: Ability to conceptualize and execute creative, cost-effective menus from scratch. Knowledge of sports/athlete nutrition is an asset.
  • Leadership Grit: Natural ability to recruit, lead, inspire, and manage a seasonal team while working right alongside them.
  • Adaptability: The operational agility to shift gears quickly between athlete-specific fueling and volume-heavy lodge service.
  • Reliability & Independence: Excellent self-management skills, financial accountability, and a commitment to completing seasonal contracts.
  • Working with the team: Mt. Sima has a fun, tight nit and high functioning management team that you will work alongside with the meet the challenge.

Perks & Benefits

  • Housing: Access to on-site, shared staff housing (based on availability).
  • Meals: Meal allowance provided during operational days.
  • Ski Pass: Free Season Pass for yourself and immediate family members residing with you.
  • Health Benefits: (after 6 months) 50% matching company-paid health, dental, and life insurance plan.
  • Vacation: 4% vacation pay paid bi-monthly. Flexibility during shoulder seasons for time away.
  • Growth: A 50% part-time schedule during summer operations, with significant room to grow as the society expands its year-round offerings.
