After the success of the first 'cool ski industry jobs' article, more brands reached out about the great jobs they have on offer. And since more than a few of you were inspired to hit me up about our own openings and I can only assume plenty applied to other doubtless roles too. I'd call that a success, so we're going to make this into an irregular but ongoing series. Here are a handful more great opportunities, and hey, maybe one of these is your dream role.
