Job postings to be shared across the Mountain District are $300 each and will remain online for up to 45 days upon receipt of payment. You may request removal of a job posting before that time, but no refunds will be issued. No advertising is posted until payment is received, which must be made by credit card.

Job postings should reference a single position; multiple openings for the same position do not require separate postings but this information should be included in your listing. Separate open positions will require separate postings at $300 each.

In addition to appearing on the Jobs page, new job postings will be listed in the next edition of the monthly newsletter or quarterly magazine, announced via the Mountain District's social media accounts, and emailed to those registered for notifications. Job postings will be emailed to the distribution list each Monday morning; submissions and payment are due by 11:59 PM MST on the Thursday prior to the mailing to be included in that week's email, otherwise they will be included in the following week's email.
