An early-shift dockside role at a Sitka fishing lodge, getting guests and boats away each morning across a season running early May to mid-September. The posting asks for about a year of customer service experience, so it is one of the more accessible positions on the lodge’s roster. Kingfisher runs a fleet-based saltwater operation and staffs thirty-five to fifty people each season, with the departure assistant sitting between the guiding and hospitality sides of the business. Pay is published as a monthly range with a seasonal total, and housing is included. Applications go by email to the lodge’s HR address rather than through an online application system.
| Pay | Employer estimates $4,500 to $5,000 a month — $18,000+ for the season — counting wage, tips and end-of-season bonus. Housing included. |
