Our Servers are crucial to creating exceptional dining experiences. This position delivers individual, personal service and builds the kind of positive guest interactions that bring people back. We are looking for people who are guest-focused, professional, consistent, and detail-oriented, and who see service as a craft worth mastering.

Servers at Brighton also represent the resort and the community. Guests will ask about the mountain, the canyon, and what to do next, and you will have the answer, or know exactly who does.

At Brighton, hospitality is not a department; it is how we operate. Every guest, from a first-time skier to a lifelong regular, should leave feeling genuinely cared for. We hold ourselves to Brighton's own standard of service, and we pursue excellence in the details: clean spaces, accurate orders, warm greetings, and teammates who have each other's backs.

• Develop working knowledge of beer, wine, spirits, cocktails, and non-alcoholic and hot beverage offerings; recommend and suggest-sell naturally and honestly.
• Attend pre-shift meetings and menu tastings and stay current on specials, 86'd items, and promotions.

Responsible Alcohol Service (21+)

• Complete required alcohol server training and maintain valid certification as required by law and resort policy.
