Cook/Housekeeper

Small, family-run fishing lodge on Kodiak Island seeking an experienced cook to independently run the kitchen for the final stretch of our summer season. This is a remote, fly-in operation with small guest groups.

Arrival:

You'll need to arrive before August 1 to be oriented and ready to cook on day one. Exact arrival date is flexible.

The kitchen:

Breakfast served at 7am. Sack lunches for clients & guides packed daily. Appetizers served at 4pm, dinner at 6pm with dessert. You manage the full kitchen — menu planning, prep, execution, inventory. Restocking is coordinated with our operations manager in town and delivered via prior floatplane availability. Housekeeping (same role): Dishes, vacuuming shared spaces daily, guest linens, and turning over beds for incoming clients. Guides assist with cleaning, this is a team effort work environment.

Who this is for:

Someone who has run a kitchen — not assisted in one. You've managed inventory, planned menus, and cooked full meal service independently. Prior lodge, remote, or camp kitchen experience is strongly preferred. You're organized, self-directed, and comfortable working without supervision in a remote setting. Who this isn't for: If you're looking for a line cook or sous chef position with a team around you, this isn't the right fit. You are the kitchen.

What we offer:

Competitive monthly salary, room and board included, plus a share of guest tips. Kodiak Island — brown bears, wild coastline, world-class fishing outside the door.

Dates:

August 1 - September 12, 2026, with possible extension into late July depending on bookings.
