Steamboat Mountain School seeks a caring, reliable, and community-minded individual to join our team as a Transportation Coordinator & Residential Life Associate for the 2026–27 school year. This position combines two important areas of school life: ensuring safe and timely transportation for students and supporting the growth and well-being of our residential community.

At SMS, every adult contributes to shaping a warm, inclusive, and values-based community. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable behind the wheel of a school shuttle as they are leading evening activities, connecting with students, and supporting the daily rhythms of a vibrant boarding school.

• Maintain accurate transportation logs and perform pre- and post-trip inspections of vehicles.
• Communicate clearly with the operations team about scheduling, vehicle maintenance, and trip needs.

Residential Life Support

• Live on campus and serve as a member of the residential life team, supporting the holistic development of boarding students.
• Provide evening and weekend supervision in the dorms on a rotating schedule.
• Build meaningful relationships with students by modeling integrity, responsibility, and empathy.
• Plan and help lead on-campus activities and local excursions that strengthen community life.
• Participate in residential team meetings and contribute to program development that fosters belonging, accountability, and personal growth.

General School Life

• Contribute to the broader life of the school through community events, trips, and student support initiatives.
• Attend start- and end-of-year meetings and ongoing professional development as required.
• Embrace the school’s mission and values of curiosity, courage, compassion, and connection.

• Clean driving record and demonstrated reliability in transportation roles.
• Experience working with adolescents, preferably in a residential, camp, or boarding school environment.
• Strong communication, organization, and teamwork skills.
• Enthusiasm for living in a close-knit boarding school community.
• Flexibility, good judgment, and a sense of humor.
