A standing programme or a past notice shows this place uses these workers. No current opening is confirmed.
What we found: The state issued a resort concession prospectus on March 10, 2026, with proposals due June 5 and a planned February 1, 2027 contract start. It covers resort and visitor services rather than an individual host’s employment. The prospectus states that the existing agreement expires January 31, 2027 and that the incumbent could compete. This is a concrete business-operator route and a reason to recheck the employer behind future resort jobs. The checked prospectus does not identify the resulting award, and its proposal deadline has passed.
Staffing evidence: A past notice names this place. Checked October 9, 2026.
