Find Your Career in Maine’s Outdoor Industry

Hostel of Maine is hiring:

Innkeeper/Manager:

Hostel of Maine is looking for an excellent, down-to-earth yet detail-oriented solo Innkeeper/Manager or couple to join our small team. This is a full-time, year-round position. While we offer a relatively laid-back work environment, we do get very busy and expect our team to rise to the fast pace while maintaining high quality. We are hiring for this position to start in late May.

Operations:

For those who crave a life filled with experiences and human interaction. You don’t need to be an extrovert to work here but a rock-solid work ethic, empathy, communication skills, self-direction, an eye for detail, and some flexibility are critical.

Housekeeping

Perfect role for those who thrive on keeping a clean space and enjoy knowing their work makes people feel comfortable and enjoy their time away from home.

“Working at the Hostel of Maine has provided me with lifelong friendships, a career I can be proud of, and accessibility to the outdoors that can’t be beat!”

– Alexandra Harbour, former Innkeeper/Manager
