Job Description :
Evelyn Hill Inc. assigns departments to new hires on their first day, so please be flexible and remember the position assigned to you might not be your first choice. Demonstrating an open and adaptable mindset is essential, as it shows your willingness to embrace new opportunities and contribute effectively to your assigned department.
Food Service – The Food Service department hosts an array of positions at various locations including Crown Café on Liberty Island, Ellis Café on Ellis Island, and outdoor spots like Bartholdi Café, Dessert Bar, Skyline, and Grab n’ Go on Liberty Island, as well as the Kiosk on Ellis Island. Opportunities for front-line staff, kitchen staff, bussers, dishwashers, and cashiers are available for those dedicated to delivering a memorable experience to our guests. The Food Service department serves as an excellent platform for gaining insights into the hospitality industry, all while working at some of the world’s most iconic locations. Food Service, being the largest department, will be the assignment for the majority of Work & Travel participants. This offers opportunities to cross-train in areas like dishwashing, food preparation, and cashiering, fostering skills in customer interaction, teamwork, and time management.
Retail – If engaging with people and sharing smiles is something you enjoy, our team of associates may be the place for you. Opportunities are available to work in gift shops on both Liberty Island and Ellis Island, rotating to help guests from around the globe find the perfect souvenir to capture their New York experience. While previous retail experience is preferred, it’s not required. What is essential are excellent guest service skills and meticulous attention to detail. The gift shop role is limited; only a few Work and Travel participants will be selected.
Maintenance/Distribution – If working behind the scenes to ensure a clean and appealing environment appeals to you, the Maintenance/Distribution role may be a fulfilling choice. This position requires a good work ethic and a dedication to preserving the historical
integrity of these landmarks. Maintenance staff handle a variety of tasks including recycling management, waste removal, cleaning, and upkeep across both islands, contributing to the visual experience of our guests and our “Greensponsible” environmental conservation program. Meanwhile, our distribution staff are crucial in restocking stores and cafes, handling deliveries, maintaining inventory, and ordering replacements. If you’re drawn to utilizing both mental and physical strengths, these positions can be vital to maintaining an outstanding visitor experience across all departments. Maintenance or Distribution typically assigns only 1-2 participants per season, often participants with earlier start dates.

Why Choose us?
Do you want to be a part of history?
People from around the world come to see the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. For them, it could be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but for you, it could be an opportunity to interact with people from diverse cultures, learn about their backgrounds, and be a part of the team that plays a vital role in their unique and memorable experiences.
The sites attract millions of tourists each year. Being a part of the team at such iconic locations requires strong teamwork. Our team members are cross trained in multiple positions within the department, so you will have an opportunity to learn new skills, ranging from operational tasks, such as dishwashing, to customer service. Many roles involve working outdoors and being surrounded by breathtaking views of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and the New York City skyline. We strongly believe that understanding multiple positions fosters better collaboration among the team members. You gain insight into colleagues’ roles and challenges, leading to improved teamwork and mutual support.
In 2023 Evelyn Hill Inc. celebrated its 92nd anniversary, making us the oldest family-owned business that has been the exclusive concessionaire for the National Park Service. Whether you’re drawn to history, culture, or hospitality, the experience you gain at the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island can open doors to various career paths. It’s an experience that can be both professionally rewarding and personally fulfilling.
Cultural exchange activities:
New York is the most visited city in the United States. Famous for… well, everything, New York City is the beating heart of the world: every culture, language, and food is represented here. You could spend a lifetime exploring the city and never really see it all.
Unsurprisingly, there is a never-ending list of things to do here. No amount of time you spend in NYC will be enough so don’t worry about running out of things to do. Whatever you like, you can find it in NYC. There’s everything here and this destinations doesn’t really need to be “sold” to you. It’s NYC! You’re already in love.
Check out the views from the top of the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, or One World Observatory. Take yourself on a museum crawl, starting at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on the northeastern edge of Central Park. Go to Chinatown for dim sum and to Little Italy for cannoli. Head to a jazz club in Harlem, check out the independent artist galleries that dot Chelsea, and shop along Fifth Avenue. You could spend an entire day in Central Park alone, checking out its zoo, carousel, lakes, and ice rink. A number of gardens and meadows make for excellent people-watching and host impromptu musical performances on nice days.
Prefer sports, movies, and live music? See the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium, the New York Mets at Citi Field, or the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. Track down sites from your favorite movies and TV shows. Seinfeld, Sex and the City, “When Harry Met Sally,” “Sleepless in Seattle,” “Serendipity,” and “Home Alone 2” are just a small fraction of what’s been filmed here.
New York is a city filled with attractions, but some of its most interesting experiences are sure to be the ones you accidentally stumble upon on the way to somewhere else. Whatever it is you’re looking for, you can find it in New York.
