About the role

Middlebury College seeks a seasonal, full-time Rikert operations support role focused on grooming and snowmaking. You will assist in staffing, scheduling, and training, and lead start-up and shutdown of snowmaking systems to ensure safe, high-quality surfaces for skiing. You will coordinate with Snowbowl teams, coaches, and volunteers, oversee equipment and water usage, and contribute to trail maintenance and reporting. Prior ski-area experience is preferred.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
