Operations Manager – ABR Ski Trails

On April 1, 2025, the Anderson Bluffs & River Trails Foundation will continue ABR’s legacy of world class Nordic skiing in the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We are seeking a dynamic individual to support this transition and ensure the highest quality skiing experience under our non-profit foundation. The ideal candidate will have a passion for Nordic skiing and excel in customer service, leadership and project planning and have a strong mechanical acumen. This position will be responsible for daily operations, business management, personnel management, safety management and board engagement, while also working with a team of seasoned groomers to ensure the highest quality skiing experience.  The right person must have the ability to work in all climatic conditions and perform some manual labor. Knowledge of power tools, small equipment and snowmobile proficiency are also critical.

To ensure the smoothest of transitions from the existing for-profit business to our non-profit foundation, we are seeking to employ the successful candidate well before the formal transition date of April 1, 2025. The preferred hiring date is between October of 2023 and October of 2024, to be negotiated. This will be a full-time, year-round position.   Salary and benefits commensurate with experience.

If you have the passion to work with others to maintain and enhance 100 kilometers of fantastic Nordic skiing in Michigan’s Big Snow Country, please submit your resume to [email protected].

Tastes on the Trail – MOVED TO SUNDAY 3/19

Due to the upcoming expected snowfall Th-Sat, we felt it was best to postpone Tastes on the Trail to Sunday March 19th. The snow accumulation could cause travel & logistics issues for both our customers & restaurant/vendors. Apologies for any inconvenience, we look forward to seeing everyone enjoying the event on Sunday 12-2p.
