Sugar Bowl Resort is looking for Janitors to help keep our resort clean, safe, and welcoming for everyone who walks through the door. You’ll play a quiet but essential role in the guest experience — the kind of behind-the-scenes work that guests may not always notice, but would absolutely notice if it wasn’t done well. We’re looking for people who take pride in a job well done and genuinely enjoy being part of a team, with part-time and swing shift availability. You’ll be expected to bring exemplary customer service to every interaction, whether with a guest or a fellow employee.
Why Sugar Bowl?
Sugar Bowl Resort has been proudly independent for over 80 years and is one of the oldest ski resorts in California. Situated atop beautiful Donner Summit, Sugar Bowl has a storied past with ties to Austrian ski culture, Hollywood and Walt Disney. This special community helped bring skiing to “sunny California” since December 1939. Since then, it continues to attract adventurous winter sports enthusiasts alike.
