Stargazing Support Team

 

 

Teton Skies is the Intermountain West’s premier provider of science-based experiential programming, with a special focus on astronomy. We work with high-end resorts, event planners, and private clients throughout the region, providing custom stargazing and astrophotography programs for audiences of all ages and backgrounds. Our goal with every program is to create an unforgettable experience, one that enriches, engages, educates, and entertains. Unique amenities such as catered refreshments and state-of -the-art optics help provide an exceptional guest experience, but what really makes Teton Skies stand out is our team of professional scientists and educators, whose skill and knowledge enable every guest to reconnect with the wonders of the natural world

 

 

Stargazing Support Team members report directly to Teton Skies’ owner and are responsible for helping our astronomers and photographers to execute world-class programs with the company’s clients. Support Team members are responsible for the transportation of gear and amenities, set-up and clean-up of the program sites, and for providing exceptional guest service support throughout the program. Most programs take place within Grand Teton National Park.

This is a salaried position with a part-time commitment in one of the country's most beautiful and iconic landscapes. In addition to a paycheck, team members can expect guest gratuities to supplement their compensation significantly.

 

This is a part-time salaried position. Because our programming is weather-dependent, you are on-call for scheduled nights (typically 5 nights per week), however, the number of nights you actually work varies. The summer program season goes from June through mid October, with training in late May or early June. Continuation into winter season (December through March) is negotiable.

 

Sometimes our Support Team members are Juniors going into their Senior year. In this case we completely understand the need to return to school around the end of August, or whenever classes resume. Many of our Support Team members have returned as Astronomers once they have completed their degrees.
