Sugar Bowl Resort is looking for Servers who genuinely love taking care of people. You’ll be the guest’s go-to throughout their meal — delivering great food and drinks, anticipating what they need before they ask, and turning a quick bite or a long lunch into a memorable part of their day on the mountain. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, take pride in the details, and love the energy of a busy dining room, we’d love to have you on our team.
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.
