Seasonal Ski Service Tech

• Bob Ward's Sports & Outdoors | Hamilton, MT

• We are looking for energetic and outgoing seasonal employees to join our Hamilton team as Ski Tech Associates. At Bob Wards, we’re dedicated to keeping our customers safe and equipped for the mountain, and our Ski Service Technicians play an essential role in ensuring skis, snowboards, and related equipment are perfectly tuned, tested, and ready for winter adventure. Your expertise and attention to detail will help our guests have an amazing experience on the slopes, while maintaining the highest safety standards.

  As a Ski Tech, you will evaluate customer equipment to recommend the right services and products, as well as tune, wax, sharpen, and repair both customer and rental skis and snowboards.

In addition, you’ll report existing or potential hazards, maintain an accurate inventory of tools, parts, and supplies, and ensure a clean and organized workspace.

  This is a seasonal position running from October through April, with the opportunity for permanent roles as they become available—we look first to our seasonal employees when filling those positions, making this a great way to get your foot in the door.
