Spend the winter working in the French Alps!
We have two openings for the position of Driver/Ski Host for the coming winter Ski Season based near the ski resorts of Grand Bornand and La Clusaz.
With over 220km of pistes the resorts are popular with our returning British guests, but are still predominantly French, meaning you won’t be based in a 'mini-Britain' as you are in some of the bigger resorts.
As a driver your main responsibilities will be to transfer our guests to and from Geneva airport and the chalet - therefore a flexible, professional and highly reliable approach is essential. You will also be expected to maintain your minibus with the highest standards of cleanliness and safety.
The other aspect of this role is to ski with our guests up to 4 days a week. Ski hosting is a great experience whereby you get to ski with many interesting people and you must be able to relate well to people, be able to share your enthusiasm of the mountains and project a professional and knowledgable service.
You must be an enthusiastic and competent skier or snowboarder and have a good experience of leading and managing teams and groups.
The role also covers an element of early evening bar work in the chalet . This can be the natural flow from a successful day's ski hosting and allows you to be a main contact and play a large part in ensuring that the guests have a fun and relaxing holiday.
Your ski hosting days would typically involve the day skiing with guests, followed by some bar work and the evening off. Driving days would typically start in the afternoon and may run through to late evening. A full day off is taken mid week. You will receive 120€ a week (after taxes). Your accommodation is provided in a comfortable self-contained apartment close to the Lodge, and will be fully furnished and equipped. |

The roles of driver/ski host require someone who is conscientious, has a friendly and enthusiastic nature and is able to manage their own time efficiently. You must be prepared to work as part of a team as many of your duties will involve assisting other members of our staff and running occasional local errands around the resort.
A full and clean driving license is required. Previous experience of driving a minibus or larger vehicles is necessary and experience of driving in winter conditions would be useful. Due to insurance cover drivers must have held a driving license for 3 years, and would ideally be over the age of 25, depending on experience.
Applicants will ideally need a UK or EU passport or a French working visa, although UK visas may be sufficient for the right candidate. |
