High-end domestic couple required for summer season in Cornwall (and potential for Winter in Val d'Isere and Verbier). This is a truly unique role which is a great step for an experienced chalet management couple looking to enjoy a summer season in a stunning waterfront location.
Some resorts at high altitude can offer glacier skiing, even during the summer months. For those resorts who wave goodbye to every last patch of snow, the visitor numbers may fall significantly and the sleepier resorts may all but close up. But this certainly is not the case for every resort. The more popular places are geared up to take advantage of the lack of snow by marketing themselves to summer visitors, who come to enjoy a whole host of outdoor pursuits, from fishing to paragliding.
So what are the advantages of working a summer season in a ski resort? If you are flexible enough to work both summer and winter, you can effectively join both seasons together and get year round employment. Technically you are still a season worker, but with the advantage of year round employment. You are also in the perfect place to enjoy some incredible holiday time! Most employers are looking for workers who are adaptable and are willing to all muck in together to get the work done. If you are working for a larger employer, there are also opportunities to transfer to other jobs and locations. If you relish the change to live and work in some of the world's most breathtaking mountain environments, make sure you apply for the jobs on this page. We look forward to hearing from you.
