About The Position

Yellowstone Club’s Technology department is currently seeking candidates for an IT Specialist III position. This is a full-time year-round position located in Big Sky, Montana. The IT Specialist III serves as a senior technical resource within the Yellowstone Club Technology department, reporting to the IT Support Supervisor. While capable of handling the full breadth of Tier 1 and Tier 2 helpdesk responsibilities, this role is distinguished by its proactive and strategic orientation. The IT Specialist III is expected to go beyond reactive support — identifying recurring issues, process inefficiencies, and systemic gaps — and to design, implement, and document solutions that reduce overall helpdesk ticket volume, improve system reliability, and enhance business processes across all departments. This role serves as a technical lead and mentor for junior IT staff and as a trusted technology partner for other business units.
