Wages

We offer competitive wages throughout the company. Shore-based positions are paid an hourly rate, with an average workweek of 40 hours. Marine-based positions aboard our fishing and water taxi boats are based on a salary plus tips. Most marine schedules are an eight- to ten-hour day and a rotating five to six day workweek. Kayak guides/instructors are paid hourly and per trip.

Supervisory positions may be available to qualified returning employees and include additional commitment and responsibilities – just ask! Discussions regarding supervisory roles are at the discretion of Department Managers. 

Uniforms & Grooming

We expect all employees to follow and sign our “grooming and dress code” policy. Certain positions might require a uniform to be worn while on duty, and we provide specific information concerning uniforms as necessary.

Activities & Benefits

Employees are encouraged to experience all of Miller’s Landing’s activities and welcome to join our fishing, kayaking, and water taxi trips (space and schedule permitting). In your leisure time, there is an amazing variety of outdoor activities to take advantage of including hiking, camping, fishing, wildlife viewing, and much more. Our location is backed up to several hiking trails and great fishing locations.  

Additional benefits may include wildlife and glacier tours of Kenai Fjord National Park and Resurrection Bay, dog sledding, zipline tours, sailing, river fishing, flight tours, and much more. We encourage our team to experience these activities early in the season during their off-work time so they may be better educated about the area and what Miller’s Landing offers their customers.

Rules & Regulations

All employees are subject to policies and procedures set forth by Miller’s Landing.

Some positions may require pre-employment and random drug testing. All employees will be required to submit a pre-employment investigation as well as “fitness for duty” evaluations, if deemed necessary. All staff are expected to participate in zero tolerance for drugs and alcohol during working hours. 

Housing

While we offer housing on the property for full-time employees, it is important to keep in mind that we are approximately 3 miles south of town on a dirt road and do not offer transportation or food service. We encourage you to review and understand the local transportation options and/or bring your own wheels – bicycle, moped, car, etc. Some employees live in their own housing in town, we have a bunkhouse with limited space – returning employees are given the first choice – and we offer camping spots, parking for vans or campers with 30Amp electric, and a variety of non-electrical dry cabins. If you have any questions regarding housing options, we are happy to help and can provide additional information if needed.
