Description

Spend the winter working in a luxury chalet in France or Switzerland!

Ted Bentley stands for luxury. For the coming season we need to find dedicated Chalet Managers to work in our chalets in Courchevel, France, or in Nendaz, Switzerland. Courchevel is a famous resort located in the Three Valleys, the world's largest ski domain with over 600km of pistes. Nendaz is a large and busy village, just over the mountain from Verbier, with over 400km of pistes in the Four Valleys ski region.

The Chalet Manager/Driver is a pivotal role within Ted Bentley's operation. You will need to be conscientious, friendly and enthusiastic, and able to manage your own time efficiently. Your primary role will be to take responsibility for the guests in your chalet. You will help with serving meals, assisting in the kitchen (you will work alongside a professional chef), and generally being a scintillating host.

You will also be chiefly responsible for keeping the chalet looking immaculate - cleaning the chalet each day (make all beds, clean all bathrooms, empty all bins etc.) and organising laundry weekly.

Other tasks are likely to include helping with the chalet shopping trip once a week, driving guests to and from the main lift station, and perhaps collecting kids from school during the day. You might also be required to collect guests from the train station or airport on change-over days, and accompany them to obtain their hire equipment.

We are offering the right Chalet Managers a generous remuneration package that will include comfortable accommodation in the resort, free ski hire and a lift pass for the season, plus travel insurance and return travel to the Alps, a North Face jacket plus other items of staff uniform. A training week will take place prior to the season to ensure you are fully up to speed with the chalet's and the village's workings.

Requirements

A UK Passport and a full, clean UK driving license is required. Previous experience of driving a minibus would be a distinct advantage and experience of driving in winter conditions would be useful.
