MGS Ski Ltd Ski Season Jobs

We are a small, family-run company that has been working in one resort - Val Cenis - for over 30 years; we know the mountain, the village, and the people inside out, and are a real part of the local community. Val Cenis is a small and traditional resort based on the French-Italian border, in the unspoilt and uncommercialised Maurienne Valley. Run by locals, the resort is made up of two authentic French villages; the mountain is North-facing, which means we have an excellent snow record, and with a high tree line, the mountain - both on and off the piste - is beautiful, uncrowded and has something for everyone. We do everything we can to make sure our clients have a relaxed, enjoyable, and fun holiday; we take care of all the details before they arrive in resort, and provide excellent customer service once they are here.
