Employment


Discovery is a fun, energetic place to work

For the most part, we need seasonal employees to run the lifts, groom the slopes, patrol the runs, teach skiing and boarding, and work in the ticket office, rental center and café. Experience and skill requirements vary by position, but all jobs require a strong work ethic, physical stamina, mental sharpness, a friendly attitude and a quick smile. Specifically, we are looking for an energetic group of cooks/line cooks to continue our tradition of delivering unique high quality food in our cafeteria. This is a great opportunity to practice high quality food service in a fun, fast pace environment. If you are interested, please download the application below and send to: info@skidiscovery.com. We are also considering employment in the following areas: rental shop techs, ticket office clerks, lift operators, ski school instructors, certified ski patrollers, retail and food and beverage cashiers as well as line servers and dishwashers.

Pay is dependent on skill and aptitude to learn, benefits for full time employees (25+ hours/week) include season pass and sport shop discount.

Discovery will begin responding to applications for the 2022-23 season in mid-October to early November.

Some positions begin on a part-time basis when the ski area opens for weekends in late November. Full-time work in all departments generally begins when the ski area opens for seven-days-a-week operation in mid to late December.

Discovery continues to take applications throughout the season to fill positions as needed.

To apply, please download an application and email it to: info@skidiscovery.com, resumes are also welcome.
