Kitchen Utility & Dishwasher

Mt. Hood Meadows and Cooper Spur Mtn. Resort foster an environment where every person feels a sense of belonging. We are committed to creating a consistent and enduring effort to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion for our team, guests, and community through respecting and celebrating all backgrounds and perspectives while addressing barriers through a collaboration of efforts with leadership, DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) consultants, and our DEI Committee. Opportunities exist for our team to engage in training, educational resources, and focus work; connecting our mission of enriching lives to meaningful and purposeful work. We recognize that growing the culture and influencing the industry is a significant effort, it requires everyone’s engagement, collaboration, and voice. We invite all our team members to be part of improving the culture in whatever capacity they can. 

Passion can take many forms: for the mountains, for serving others, for being a part of a team, for the skills you are learning or haven't learned yet. The Kitchen Utility Team at Mt. Hood Meadows works behind the scenes assisting with all aspects of the back of the house operations. They are an important part of the kitchen team; washing dishes and cleaning while helping with prep and cooking as needed.

We are a learning organization with a coaching culture and aim to be a good “first employer”. Kitchen Utility and Dishwashers have the opportunity to train and build their skills in culinary operations.
