WORKING AT CRADLE MOUNTAIN HOTEL

Cradle Mountain Hotel offers onsite shared accommodation.  Kitchens and lounge rooms are shared in each house consisting of 12 bedrooms (single and double). Bathrooms are shared between two bedrooms (through interconnecting doors). Free-of-charge laundry facilities are shared amongst the houses. There are four washers and five dryers available for use.

Many employees, especially our seasonal staff and working holiday makers, come to Cradle Mountain Hotel and our other properties without their own transport. We ask all new employees to make their own way to the hotel to commence induction before starting work – we can assist with transport options if required.

If your assigned staff accommodation is offsite, you will need to arrange your own transport to and from work. Having your own vehicle is useful if you wish to explore the broader area, as there is very limited local public transport.

Our People and Culture team will provide you with more information about induction if you are offered a position with Cradle Mountain Hotel.

Yes, all of our employees are required to wear a uniform. In most cases, we will provide branded items of clothing such as shirts and aprons at no charge – we ask employees to provide their own black trousers and appropriate footwear.

The team will provide you with more specific information regarding uniforms if you are offered a position with Cradle Mountain Hotel.
