We believe strong mountains are built by strong operators. MCP leaders understand the mountain, model our values, and are trusted to make real decisions.

You'll lead teams, drive results, and shape resort operations, growth, and skier service while upholding our "Skiing First" philosophy.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead teams and projects to enhance operational efficiency, revenue streams, and overall performance for one or multiple resorts.
- Partner with MCP Leadership to craft and execute a comprehensive strategic roadmap for sustainable growth, encompassing market expansion, innovative guest experiences, and long-term asset value enhancement.
- Cultivate a high-performance organizational culture through talent development, mentorship, and alignment of initiatives with overarching corporate objectives
- Proactively identify and capitalize on improvement opportunities, owning solutions to complex challenges in dynamic, seasonal markets while fostering innovation and agility.
- Drive results at resort locations and at headquarters through disciplined planning, budgeting, and resource allocation
