Assistant Caretaker Couple Needed - East Side of Glacier Park - Babb, MT
WHY DO WE SHOW EXPIRED LISTINGS?
This is an opportunity to combine work/play in Glacier National Park!! I have a small Ranch (one hundred sixty acres) on the east side of Glacier Park. Full time caretakers occupy the property.
I am looking for a couple that would assist the current caretakers in the upkeep and maintenance of the property June through September (approx). There are four Vacation Rentals that are operated seasonally and assistance is needed with daily housekeeping and cleaning. You may also be asked to fill in as hosts if the full time caretakers take time off. The seasonal position would assist in repairing and maintaining the buildings and fences (post and barb wire), and assist in groundskeeping (including weed management) & gardening. There are presently seven alpaca and one guard llama on the property. Within reason, your horse(s)would be welcome, pasture and water provided.
I would provide space and utilities for a self contained trailer or RV & reasonable wage, laundry facilities, wi-fi, and seasonal family pass to Glacier National Park. Work schedule could be approx 40 or more shared hours per week, schedule depending on rental occupancy. This would allow you time to explore Glacier and the area at your leisure. The area is very rural; wildlife abounds and the setting is exceptional: lots of peace and quiet, exceptional hiking and photography opportunities. The Ranch is twelve miles from Glacier Park, three miles from the Canadian Border, beautiful golf courses in the area including Waterton Natl Park. There are good restaurants in the summer season and world class, blue ribbon fishing in lakes and streams.
Qualifications include reliable, trustworthy, experience in farming/ranching, livestock, barb wire fencing (building and repair), noxious weed management. A plus would be experience in the hospitality industry, skills in building maintenance and repair, and mechanically inclined for equipment maintenance (ATV, Ford tractor, vehicle, boat, small engine).
If you don't have your own RV or travel trailer, I can supply a twenty-seven ft. travel trailer for housing. This is a chance to spend your summer on a Ranch AND have plenty of time for Glacier National Park and surrounding area. Please respond with a resume including references and photo (for phone interview) by email. No phone calls please. I will answer questions about the position via email.
