Weekend Snowmobile Jobs in Utah (NOW HIRING)

Overview

Brighton Resort is looking for dedicated and resilient individuals to join our Snowmaking team. Snowmakers work long hours outdoors, in extreme mountain conditions, helping build and maintain the snow base that our guests depend on. This role is physically demanding, weather-dependent, and plays a key part in setting the stage for our guests' experience each day.

Snowmaking is a seasonal, intensive push that runs the first couple of months of winter, typically mid-November through mid-January. Because production depends on weather and snow conditions, hours are highly variable, ranging from 48+ hour work weeks to multiple days off in a row. We run shifts around the clock, with day, swing, and graveyard positions available. Once the snowmaking season wraps, team members keep their pass and perks for the rest of the season.

If you enjoy working outside, staying active, and helping others, we'd love to have you on the team!

Perks:

• FREE All-Access Brighton Ski Pass
• FREE UTA ski bus access
• Discounted Brighton lift tickets for friends and family
• Access to discounted lift tickets at multiple ski areas
• Employee discounts at all Brighton outlets and all Boyne Resorts
• Discounted membership at Momentum Indoor Climbing Gym
• Access to ExpertVoice, Liberty Mountain, and Outdoor Prolink retail sites
