Employment
A Growing Team
The Desert of Maine is going through a total reboot under new ownership. We are constantly adding staff to help us deliver a world-class experience for our visitors. We take special pride in creating a work environment that is friendly, supportive, challenging, and fun.
Open Positions
We have several full-time and part-time seasonal positions to fill every year. Our season is May to October, but we are busiest from June to August so we typically add extra staff during these months (calling all high school and college students!).
Reporting to the Director of Operations, our Visitor Experience staff work in many roles including welcoming visitors at our Welcome Center; operating our retail store, snack bar, and mini golf course; orienting visitors and answering questions; maintaining our exhibits.
Reporting to the owner, our Sr Grounds/Maintenance staff has overall responsibility for keeping our outdoor spaces safe and looking great. We are looking for someone with landscaping experience, light carpentry/repair skills, and experience operating tools and equipment such as tractors, power tools, mowers, etc.
Our grounds and maintenance staff spends their time outdoors making our grounds look beautiful. Tasks include landscaping, leafblowing, mowing, campground upkeep, stacking wood, mulching, weeding, exhibit maintenance, and much more. Join a small, close-knit team, spending your summer outdoors in a beautiful place learning valuable skills!
Housecleaning Staff
Our housecleaning staff manages daily turnover and cleaning of cabins, glamping tents, and our shared campground bath house. Tasks include changing linens, cleaning bathrooms and floors, restocking supplies, doing laundry, and more. Work alongside a small team of housecleaning staff in one of the most beautiful outdoor settings in Maine!
