At Fair Hills Resort, time on the water is a treasured part of the vacation experience. For generations, families have learned to ski on our lake and many of those first rides started with one of our Water Ski Instructors.
Fair Hills Resort offers complimentary water ski lessons to our guests, and our ski team plays a key role in creating safe, exciting, and confidence-building experiences on the water. Whether it’s a child skiing for the first time or an adult checking it off their bucket list, you’ll help make it happen.
What You’ll Do:
- Provide clear, patient instruction in water skiing and wakeboarding fundamentals
- Safely operate ski boats and pull skiers of all skill levels
- Coach guests from dockside instruction through successful deep-water starts
- Ensure all safety procedures and equipment checks are followed
- Create a fun, encouraging, and supportive environment
- Help maintain boats, ropes, skis, and waterfront equipment
- Represent the resort with professionalism and positive energy
What We’re Looking For:
- Strong water skiing and/or wakeboarding ability
- Experience driving boats and pulling skiers
- Comfort operating boat motors and handling docking procedures
- Excellent judgment and attention to water safety
- Clear communication skills and patience with beginners
- Instructional experience is a plus, but not required, we’ll help you grow into the role
This position is perfect for someone who loves being on the water, enjoys teaching, and takes pride in helping others succeed.
Schedule:
- Monday–Friday
- 8:30am – 4:30pm (with a mid-day lunch break)
- No scheduled lessons if the 4th of July falls on a weekday
In addition to scheduled lessons, instructors have the opportunity to book private lessons on their own time for additional hours and income.
The Experience:
Few moments compare to seeing a guest stand up on skis for the first time. As a Water Ski Instructor, you’ll help create those unforgettable lake memories, continuing a tradition that has been part of Fair Hills for over 100 years.
If you’re responsible, energetic, and happiest behind the wheel of a boat, we’d love to have you join our ski team this summer.
