JOB SUMMARY:

We are seeking a skilled and adventurous Assistant Manager to lead operations at Sunrise Grill—Kirkwood’s on-mountain, ski-in/ski-out dining destination. This location serves up quick-service lunch, grab-and-go snacks, and hearty BBQ menu items when the weather allows. The Assistant Manager fully oversees daily operations, staff management, food quality, and guest experience for this unique mountaintop venue.
Because Sunrise Grill is only accessible via skis or snowboard, this role requires intermediate to advanced skiing/riding ability. In addition, during winter storm cycles, the team is responsible for snow mitigation—digging out and preparing the location to welcome guests each day. If you thrive in a high-energy, outdoor environment and can lead a team with skill and enthusiasm, this is your mountain office.

OPERATIONS & GUEST EXPERIENCE

• Manage all aspects of Sunrise Grill operations, including grab-and-go service, hot food production, and BBQ offerings
• Maintain high food quality, presentation, and safety standards
• Ensure the venue is clean, stocked, and guest-ready each day
• Deliver exceptional guest service in a high-volume, fast-paced mountain setting
• Coordinate with resort operations for weather-related adjustments and safety procedures

JOB REQUIREMENTS:

• 2+ years of food service or restaurant management experience
• Intermediate or advanced skiing/riding ability (required for daily access to location)
• Ability to lead and motivate a seasonal team in challenging weather conditions
• Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills
• Serve Safe Manager, TIPS, and RBS certification (or ability to obtain within 30 days)
• Ability to work outdoors for extended periods in winter mountain conditions
• Physically able to lift up to 50lbs and perform snow removal tasks
