Kualoa Ranch Hawai'i Human Resources

Kualoa is a family-owned enterprise dedicated to enriching lives through the preservation of our land and the celebration of its rich history. Our vision is to serve as a model for environmental stewardship by preserving, protecting, and enhancing Hawaiʻi’s natural beauty and cultural heritage while fostering sustainable recreational and agricultural enterprises that harmonize with the environment. We are committed to sharing our deep respect and care for the natural environment, the unique Hawaiian culture, and the sacred history of Kualoa Ranch. Established in 1850, Kualoa Ranch spans 4,000 acres, stretching from steep mountain cliffs to the sparkling Pacific Ocean. Located on the northeastern coast of Oʻahu, just 45 minutes from Honolulu, Kualoa's diverse terrain ranges from dense rainforests and wide-open valleys to pristine white sand beaches and lush cliff faces. It is truly a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, with many areas accessible only by horseback, all-terrain vehicles, or hiking. Kualoa is also a renowned filming location for numerous television shows and Hollywood movies, including Jurassic Park, Windtalkers, Pearl Harbor, Godzilla, Tears of the Sun, and 50 First Dates. TV series filmed here include both the original and new Hawaii Five-O, Magnum P.I., NCIS: Hawaiʻi, and LOST. The property is divided into two major areas: the northern section, which includes Kaʻaʻawa Valley, home to most of the movie locations; and the southern section, which features Hakipuʻu Valley, the 800-year-old Moliʻi Fishpond, and Secret Island. Kualoa is one of Oʻahu's most historically significant destinations and was considered one of the island's most sacred places in ancient times. Come experience the aloha spirit and the unique sense of ʻOhana (family) that Kualoa employees embody.
