Job description

Resort: The Summit at Snoqualmie

Locations: Snoqualmie Pass, Washington

Overview

The Summit at Snoqualmie is the Pacific Northwest's premier multi mountain ski resort, located 47 miles east of Seattle at Snoqualmie Pass. The property spans five base areas and 20 chairlifts across Summit West, Summit Central, Summit East, and Alpental within the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. A four season operating model includes a mountain bike park and one of the most accessible ski destinations in North America.

The Summit at Snoqualmie is proud to be part of the Boyne Resorts family of resorts. Boyne Resorts is the largest family owned, independent mountain resort company in North America, guided by five core values: Serve First, Developing Great People, Attitude is Everything, Long Term Thinking, and Excellence in Execution.

Responsibilities

The Sand Truck Driver – Night keeps The Summit at Snoqualmie's parking lots and resort roadways safe through the afternoon and evening, when daytime melt refreezes and guests are leaving or arriving for night skiing. Reporting to the Snow Removal Supervisor, this seasonal role operates a CDL sand truck across all base areas on a 2:00 PM to 10:30 PM shift. The role exists because surfaces change quickly as temperatures drop after sunset, and guests and employees need safe footing and traction on their way out.

• Operate the sand truck and spreader with precision in tight lots and around parked vehicles, pedestrians, and other equipment.
• Monitor surface conditions throughout the shift and re-treat icy or high-traffic areas as needed.
• Fulfill department and resort hauling needs as assigned.
• Follow all safety guidelines and standard operating procedures, and perform other related duties as assigned.
• Communicate clearly by radio with the snow removal crew, parking staff, and supervisor about progress, hazards, and priorities.
• Receive the day driver’s handoff at the start of shift and brief the overnight snow removal crew on conditions and open issues before end of shift.
• Stay composed and safety-focused through long shifts, darkness, and severe weather.
• Prioritize pedestrian crossings, lodge walkways, guest drop-off zones, and parking ahead of afternoon departures and night skiing arrivals.
• Respond quickly to requests from Parking, Guest Services, and other departments to treat newly reported icy areas.
• Treat guests encountered in lots and on roadways with courtesy and patience, directing them to staff when they need help.
