The job description
a typical day in resort
A typical day for a chalet chef in a ski resort is a long one! Up well before the guests, and not finishing until late in the evening. That said, while they are out skiing for the majority of the day, there is plenty of time for you to have some free time too. A typical day will include breakfast, afternoon cakes or snacks, and a four course evening dinner. You will also have to spend time menu planning and shopping.
Who are we looking for?
what makes you the ideal candidate
To work as a chalet chef you must have genuine kitchen experience, preferably in an environment where you are happy to lead and take the initiative. High end chalets often give you the opportunity to design your own menu. And wherever you end up working, sourcing ingredients is likely to be your responsibility so be prepared to demonstrate you have experience of this during the interview.
In some parts of the Alps, the driving age is 21 so this can be a requirement for some but not all employers.
Similarly, an EU passport is required for some companies, though there are plenty who are happy to employ Brits.
What can we offer you?
why choose us for your ski season
Your rate of pay will be dependent upon your level of experience, but as ski resort jobs go, everybody skis on their stomach so you are a valued member of the team and your salary will reflect that.
The typical package can include accommodation, food and drinks, a season-long ski pass, ski equipment such as skis/board and boots, plus flights and transfers to and from the resort.
In an effort to avoid the headache of staff leaving midway through the season, many employers include a performance-related bonus payable at the end of the season. This can really boost your earnings!
