Job Description

Become a part of a contemporary culture that celebrates individuality, creativity, and teamwork! We are redefining the essence of hospitality and are looking for energetic, down-to-earth team players who thrive by making genuine connections, crafting experiences, and fostering good vibes.

MOLLIE ASPEN is a new, 68-room boutique hotel that occupies a prime location on Paepcke Park in the heart of Aspen, Colorado. Drawing inspiration from the inimitable Mollie Gibson, a beloved local figure known for her restless enthusiasm for the outdoors and ability to bring people together, the hotel pays homage to her significant contributions to Aspen's early social, artistic, and adventurous fabric.

Designed by award-winning studio Post Company, MOLLIE's interiors are subtly inspired by the Aspen tradition of being firmly grounded while gazing abroad - a seamless blend of understated luxury and residential comfort. The property holds a quiet confidence and commitment to a reduction of excess with interiors that thoughtfully utilize native materials from Aspen and the wider Western region, accentuated with natural woods, earthen ceramics, and hand-dyed textiles. MOLLIE’s lobby fosters an inviting atmosphere for visitors and locals alike, where the eclectic mix of differing personas is celebrated and upheld.

The hotel's food & beverage programs are spearheaded by Gin & Luck, the group behind the critically acclaimed Death & Co. brand and consists of a lobby bar and restaurant with year-round outdoor seating and a laid-back all-day café. Set atop MOLLIE's top floor is a rooftop pool and terrace that transforms into an intimate lounge by night, with unobstructed views of Aspen Mountain. MOLLIE Aspen has been developed by HayMax Capital, a leading local development firm, specializing in Aspen hospitality and residential development.
