Job Description
We’re looking for a next-level Assistant General Manager to join our outdoor hospitality leadership team in Wisconsin.
This isn’t your typical AGM role.
We’re looking for someone who can thrive outdoors, think on their feet, manage a million moving pieces, understand the numbers, and turn crazy ideas into things that actually work.
💰 Compensation & ScheduleSalary: $55,000–$60,000 annually
🏡 Housing Included: 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house with a fenced-in backyard located directly on the property.
📅 Seasonal ScheduleOff-Season: Monday–Friday schedule focused on planning, projects, training, operational improvements, and preparing for the upcoming season.
Peak Season: This is a primarily second-shift leadership role designed to complement and offset the General Manager’s schedule.
During the season, this position will include:
- All weekends are required
- Primarily second-shift hours
- Regular Manager on Duty (MOD) shifts
- High guest interaction and team leadership during peak operating hours
- A hands-on leadership presence throughout the resort
- Flexible scheduling based on operational needs, events, and occupancy
This is a seasonal business, and the schedule changes significantly with the operation. We need someone who embraces that rather than someone who is looking for a traditional Monday–Friday management position year-round.
You Might Be the Person Who…🏕️ Loves the energy of outdoor hospitality and enjoys working in an environment where no two days are exactly alike.
📊 Can visit and not get lost in Excel spreadsheets. You can talk P&L, budgeting, forecasting, reforecasting, labor, and operational performance just as easily as how to build the perfect campfire without fat lighter.
💡 Brainstorms ideas that make everyone say, “Wait…could we actually do that?” — and then knows how to turn the idea into a plan.
⚡ Makes quick decisions when things get crazy and can remain calm when the operation is moving a hundred miles an hour.
⏰ Has exceptional time-management and organizational skills and can prioritize what matters most when everything seems important.
👥 Knows how to lead a team while still being willing to jump in wherever needed.
🌅 Doesn’t mind weekends and second shifts and understands that peak-season leadership means being present when our guests and team need us most.
🔧 Isn’t afraid to get their hands dirty. You’re just as comfortable walking a property and solving an operational issue as you are sitting behind a computer analyzing the numbers.
