We Are Human Kind
Intentional Hospitality
This is not a regular job, and we are not a regular company.
We Are Human Kind is our name.
We are a new hospitality group, forming around the restoration and rejuvenation of a small, magical, high desert community nestled in the bouldery mountains of San Diego’s Sonoran Desert along Old Highway 80. Live music, art, hospitality, and community are our heartbeat.
We are dreamers and we are doers.
We are looking for others who feel the same calling for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build something meaningful, something real, and something that reverberates through the generations.
OUR CULTURE
Our culture encourages the strange and unusual.
We see beauty in imperfection.
We like dust, we like patina, we like age and we like rust.
Our culture is high fidelity - we celebrate humanity in all of its forms - all of the highs and lows of our natural human rhythms, backgrounds, experiences, and times together.
We accept that life is ups, downs, easy days and hard days - and we wouldn’t want it any other way.
We are not easily offended and we laugh a lot.
We put everything we have into everything we do.
We do not go halfway.
As the owners and designers, there is no detail we do not care about.
We care about the way our spaces make others feel and the way our food and our drinks convey our intentions.
We are relentless, we are problem solvers, the show must go on.
We approach all aspects of this endeavor from a place of aspiration.
We focus on the human experience and our goal is to overwhelm our fellow humans with spaces and experiences that feel effortless and natural.
VALUES
Impressively independent and reliable
Excitement about what you do
Passion for the smallest details
Grace and compassion for others
Upholding honesty over comfort
Resilient
Conscientious
Self-aware
