Join the Kennicott Glacier Lodge Team

Kennicott Glacier Lodge hires a few hard working, team oriented, adventurous people to work with us in the Alaskan wilderness each summer. Living and working in Kennicott offers an opportunity for a unique, and some say life-changing, lifestyle in a spectacular mountain setting.

The Lodge Staff is a community of about 35 people, ranging in age from 18 to 65 and we share our summer home with up to 100 Guests per day from all over the world. One third to one half of our Staff return from year to year, and each year we look forward to welcoming a few new people to join us in Kennicott.

Working here can be an opportunity to learn a variety of skills and develop a strong work ethic, and it can be a place to grow professionally as a chef, baker, maintenance worker, or customer service representative. Each summer we employ people as housekeepers and servers, dishwashers, cooks, bakers, maintenance staff, front desk hosts, and drivers.

Our remote location and commitment to stewardship, require us to be a resourceful team. More often than not, we bake it, we sew it, we build it, we fix it, and we recycle it.
