** About Mountain Sky Guest Ranch
** Just 30 scenic miles north of Yellowstone National Park in Montana’s beautiful Paradise Valley, Mountain Sky Guest Ranch is the perfect place for the outdoor enthusiast. Horseback riders, hikers, mountain bikers, kayakers, fly-fisher folk, whitewater rafters, rock climbers and naturalists all find themselves drawn here season after season, along with the individuals who simply seek to live and work in a peaceful mountain setting in the heart of Yellowstone Country.

While the ranch opens May 5 and closes at the end of October, many of our 100+ staff members work during our family season, which runs early-June through August. If you are a seasonal worker we encourage you to apply early as we are always looking for individuals who can work our expanding 6 month season. We have many positions available for those college students and others who are looking for 3 months of summer work, or a possible internship.#

** The Employee Experience
** This is somuch more than a job.

During the interview process, we try our best to describe the environment, the job, and the connections that staff form with guests, with their coworkers and with nature. Despite our best efforts, however, we eventually learn that this experience goes far beyond what our words can convey.

While you can read on in greater detail below, we'll summarize the experience with this:
You will work hard, alongside fellow staff and the management team, as we tirelessly strive to provide our guests with the most incredible experience possible; you will play hard, getting to experience the endless recreational opportunities and natural wonders that Yellowstone country has to offer; and you will experience all of this with a group of adventurous, hard-working, personable and fun-loving people that will become lifelong friends.#

** Ideal Candidate
** Last season, 80% of our families chose to re-book at the end of their stay, and staff interaction with our guests is the single most important ingredient to our success. We’re looking for people who understand the importance of a friendly smile and a kind word. Our guests aren’t here to be served by a staff that is ‘seen but not heard’… they want to hear your story, share a laugh, and experience true western hospitality at its finest.

Our staff members are personable, adventurous, hard-working, honest, and are willing to pitch in when they see that a helping hand is needed. Finally, we’re looking for people with a desire and a willingness to learn. Rather than departmentalize, we give our entry-level Guest Services staff the opportunity to work a variety of jobs in order to gain a better understanding of the operation as a whole and to better prepare them for whatever may come in the future..#

** Room and Board
** Room and board is provided to all Mountain Sky staff members. Staff accommodations are mostly communal (shared cabins) with private accommodations reserved for managers, returning senior employees or elder staff members. Mountain Sky provides linens, comforters, pillows, and towels for staff members. There is sufficient storage space on the ranch for personal belongings. There are two staff lodges on the ranch which provide ample space for indoor recreation, along with a place to do laundry.

Staff members are allowed to respectfully use all ranch facilities including our golf course, workout facility, sauna and steam room, swimming pool, and more.

Staff meals are provided 3 times per day in our staff dining room. Our hearty staff buffets provide a wide variety of options, and a refrigerator is kept fully stocked with food in the staff dining area for snacks, missed meals, and for the storage of specialty food items that staff members may purchase if they have strict dietary guidelines.#
** Employee Perks
** Not only do employees have access to the full facility, but they are also encouraged to participate in guest activities free of charge – so long as there is availability. Horseback rides, guided hikes, fly-fishing instruction, golf and whitewater rafting trips are just a few of the activities you’ll have the opportunity to experience.#
