Join Our Ski Famille

In Chalet Childcare Operator

April 2022 update

We will start recruiting for the 2022/23 winter in May/June so please keep an eye on this page to find the right time to apply.

For this season just finished, we had some wonderful, enthusiastic people who looked really well after our guests this winter!

Ski Famille and its sister brand, Ski Vertigo, are well known for their enthusiastic, confident, creative and charismatic people. If this sounds like you, then apply today to join our overseas team! We manage 22 chalets in four French alpine resorts: Les Gets (Portes du Soleil), La Plagne (Paradiski), Tignes (Espace Killy) and Les Menuires (Les 3 Vallées).

We will provide comprehensive training at the beginning of the season to ensure you make the most of your time in the mountains. Fluent English is required for all roles and French would certainly put you ahead of other candidates. Previous ski industry experience, whilst advantageous, is not essential.

The loss of freedom of movement because of Brexit means that most British citizens no longer have the automatic right to work in France. So we have adapted and expanded our opportunities for other nationalities too and we look to employ the following:

 

• EU nationals from any of the 27 member states
• Dual nationality British/EU citizens
• Other nationalities with the right to work in France
Young traveller (working holiday) | France-Visas.gouv.fr
• British citizens with French residency and the right to work
• British citizens (we, as the employer will need to apply for a work permit for you)

Is now the time to get away from it all and enjoy a winter in the snow? Take a look at the roles below and make your next job with Ski Famille and Ski Vertigo!
