Descrizione del lavoro

Soldier Hollow Nordic Center is hiring a Venue Operations Supervisor to run snowmaking, snowcat grooming and trail operations at the Midway, Utah venue that hosted biathlon and cross country skiing at the 2002 Olympics.

The job is full time and year round, and it sits at the center of how the venue works. Winter means building base, setting classic and skate track, shaping the tubing hill and prepping racecourses.

A Day in the Life

From the posting: “Winter starts with an aggressive snowmaking push. When temperatures drop overnight, you and your crew fire up the system and build base so the tubing hill and ski trails open on time. Once the snow is down, you set classic and skate track, shape the tubing hill, and prep racecourses. In summer, you shift to mountain bike trail construction, roller ski trail repair, mowing, and fleet maintenance. Every day, you lead alongside your crew, and every athlete, family, and racer feels the result.”

Why Soldier Hollow

“As part of the Utah Olympic Legacy Foundation, Soldier Hollow exists to cultivate champions in sport and in life,” the posting reads. “Our venue crew is preparing for 2034, and we’re not afraid to try new things. Last winter, we stored 12,000 cubic meters of snow to jump‑start this season. You’ll join a crew that values fresh ideas, building trails for World Cup athletes, first‑time skiers, and mountain bikers across 31 kilometers.”

The foundation describes the person it is looking for this way: “You’re happiest with grease on your hands and a plan for tomorrow’s grooming. You bring Grit to midnight snowmaking shifts and Excellence to every corduroy line, always looking for a better way. You build a strong crew through Collaboration, working right beside your team. You want your work to have Impact on athletes chasing Olympic dreams and on the Community that skis, bikes, and hikes these trails.”
