Description
The Role
Sandia Peak Ski Area sits in the Sandia Mountains just east of Albuquerque — close enough to a real city to make life easy, high enough to feel like its own world. It's a resort with deep roots in New Mexico and a lot of runway ahead of it. We're looking for a Director of Mountain Operations to run the mountain day to day and to lead the capital work that will shape what Sandia Peak becomes over the next decade.
This is a builder's job as much as an operator's. On any given week you might be troubleshooting a lift with your maintenance team, dialing in the snowmaking plan for a cold snap, sitting down with the U.S. Forest Service on a permit, and keeping a lift upgrade on schedule and on budget. If you're a mountain-ops professional who likes owning both the wrench and the project plan, this is a chance to put a lasting stamp on a storied resort.
As part of Mountain Capital Partners, you'll have the backing and the mandate to think long-term — and the autonomy to lead.
About Sandia Peak — Where New Mexico Learned to Ski
Sandia Peak sits in the Sandia Mountains about 35 miles northeast of Albuquerque, on Cibola National Forest land, with Southwestern skies and long views over the high desert. It's a community institution — the ski area that first brought the sport to New Mexico — with 35 trails, 300 skiable acres, and 1,700 feet of vertical served by three double chairlifts and a surface lift.
Backed by MCP — which has invested more than $75 million across its resorts since 2015 in lifts, snowmaking, and other improvements — Sandia Peak's next chapter is yours to lead.
The Opportunity
As Director of Mountain Operations, you'll partner with the General Manager and Mountain Capital Partners leadership to run the mountain at a high standard and deliver the capital projects that move Sandia Peak forward.
You'll build and lead the mountain operations team — lift maintenance, snowmaking, grooming, and the departments around them — while owning capital improvements from planning through execution, so the resort runs safely and reliably today and is positioned to grow tomorrow.
What You'll Own
Mountain Operations
Live and lead MCP's mission and culture — growing the sport of skiing and giving people the freedom to ski.
Lead all mountain operations departments — lift maintenance, snowmaking, grooming, lift operations, ski patrol, and vehicle maintenance — with hands-on expertise, not just oversight.
Build, mentor, and develop a strong operations team; coach people into bigger roles and run a tight, safe, accountable crew.
Set department budgets, operating plans, and KPIs that ladder up to resort goals, and own the results.
Keep the mountain safe and compliant, including OSHA and ANSI B77 standards.
Capital Projects & Planning
Lead the planning and execution of capital improvement projects end to end — lift replacements and upgrades, snowmaking expansion, terrain and infrastructure work.
Own scope, budget, schedule, and delivery; manage contractors, vendors, and outside engineers, and keep projects moving without dropping the ball on operations.
Partner with MCP leadership to turn the long-term growth vision into a sequenced, fundable, buildable plan.
Forest Service & Regulatory Partnership
Serve as the day-to-day operational liaison with the U.S. Forest Service — Sandia Peak operates on Cibola National Forest land — coordinating permitting, master development plan implementation, environmental compliance, and on-the-ground project execution.
Develop policies and procedures that reduce liability and create efficiencies across the operation.
What This Role Demands
An ownership mindset — act like it's yours.
High agency — you make things happen.
Hands-on technical credibility paired with the ability to plan and lead.
Exceptional leadership and communication.
Comfort navigating complexity: USFS coordination, capital projects, safety and compliance (OSHA / ANSI B77), and seasonal labor dynamics.
Qualifications
What We're Looking For
Required
Hands-on management experience in at least one of the following areas of ski area mountain operations: Lift maintenance, grooming, snowmaking, or vehicle maintenance
Lift maintenance experience to at least the level of an apprentice lift maintenance mechanic or electrician.
Experience with snowmaking.
Demonstrated project management ability — planning, budgeting, and delivering projects on time and on budget.
Ability to work effectively with the U.S. Forest Service (or comparable land-management / regulatory partners).
Strongly Preferred
Experience leading large capital projects in a ski resort setting.
Lift maintenance experience to at least the Journeyman mechanic or electrician level.
Snowmaking experience to at least the Snowmaking Manager level.
Grooming experience.
Hands-on management experience across two or more mountain operations areas.
P&L / budget ownership experience.
Bachelor's degree or higher in business, management, engineering, or a related field.
Why Sandia Peak
Build something that lasts. You'll lead the projects that define the resort's next chapter, not just keep the lights on.
Real scope, real authority. Director-level ownership of operations and capital work, with MCP's backing behind you.
A place worth showing up for. 35 trails, big views, a strong community, and a city at the bottom of the hill.
If you know mountain operations from the ground up and you're ready to lead both the crew and the projects, we'd like to hear from you.
