GETTING HERE & AROUND:

You are expected to arrive in Jackson Hole independently. Having reliable transportation is essential for your success at Turpin. While Jackson Hole has an airport, it is highly recommended that you have dependable transportation to explore the nearby parks and access the town on your own. The ranch does not offer regular employee shuttles.

Navigation systems and GPS units may provide inaccurate information. Print and prepare your driving directions beforehand. If you have a question about closed roads, please call us before you begin your journey to the ranch. Cell phone reception is limited in nearby areas and throughout Wyoming.

Is This You?

We’re not just hiring employees—we’re looking for good-hearted people who bring kindness, emotional intelligence, and positive energy to every interaction. Our ideal candidates genuinely care about others, demonstrating empathy and respect towards both guests and fellow team members, even in high-pressure moments.

Working at Turpin Meadow Ranch means joining a small, tight-knit community where self-awareness and strong interpersonal skills are essential. We’re looking for individuals who can “read the room,” recognize how their mood and actions affect others, and adjust their approach as needed to maintain a positive, team-centered environment. Whether it’s picking up on a guest’s unspoken needs or noticing when a teammate could use a hand or a word of encouragement, this emotional attentiveness is at the core of our ranch culture.

We want people who can communicate openly, manage stress effectively, and stay emotionally resilient through long workdays, unpredictable situations, or the unique challenges of living and working in a remote setting with limited cell service and few urban conveniences. Strong mental health coping skills and the ability to stay grounded and solution-focused are key to thriving here.

Flexibility, humility, and a willingness to support others outside your regular job role are vital. Whether it’s helping with an unexpected guest request, assisting a coworker, or lending a hand with ranch projects, everyone on the team helps make the guest experience exceptional.

We’re also looking for people who take pride in their personal hygiene, appearance, and overall health. This is a smoke-free property, and all employees must be at least 18 years of age, depending on the position.

At the heart of it all, Turpin Meadow Ranch staff shape the guest experience. Our guests often leave mentioning staff members by name in their 5-star reviews, and that level of service translates into higher gratuities and performance-based rewards for our team.

If you’re someone with emotional maturity, self-awareness, and a genuine desire to make others feel welcome and cared for, while embracing the challenges and rewards of life at a remote Wyoming ranch, we’d love to hear from you.

FOR FUN:

Love the Outdoors? Adventure Awaits at Turpin Meadow Ranch—Year-Round!

If you’re someone who thrives in the outdoors and loves making the most of every season, Turpin Meadow Ranch is your perfect playground and workplace.

With stunning views of the Tetons right out your front door and the Bridger-Teton Wilderness just steps out the back, there’s never a dull moment here. In the summer, you’ll have direct access to miles of hiking trails, mountain biking routes, horseback riding, fishing spots, and wildlife viewing. Three National Forest trailheads are within walking distance of the ranch, making it easy to slip away for an adventure after your shift or on your day off.

When winter rolls in, the fun doesn’t stop—it just shifts gears! Our groomed Nordic ski trails, fat tire biking loops, and guided snowmobile tours head straight into some of the most pristine backcountry in the Lower 48. Whether you want to clip into your skis, jump on a sled, or strap on snowshoes, winter at Turpin offers endless ways to explore.

And just an hour away, Jackson Hole serves as your gateway to even more adventure. World-class skiing and snowboarding at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, backcountry tours in Grand Teton National Park, and world-famous fly fishing on the Snake River are just a few of the opportunities at your fingertips. Multi-sport days are common here—float the river in the morning, ride trails in the afternoon, or ski fresh powder before heading into town for live music and great food.

Jackson is also known for its vibrant arts and culture scene, offering live theater, art fairs, music festivals, and free community concerts year-round. The town’s energy, combined with Turpin’s remote beauty, gives you the perfect balance between wilderness escape and mountain town fun.

If you’re ready for a season—or a full year—packed with adventure, teamwork, and unforgettable experiences, Turpin Meadow Ranch is the place for you.
