Description

We are looking for social managers from a hospitality background with a passion for skiing to look after a team in one of our Chalet-Hotels next winter.  The successful applicant will need to hold an EU passport (or have the right) to work in France, Austria and Spain or have the right to work in the UK to be seconded to Switzerland.

The Resort Manager is responsible for the running of our resort operations and managing a team of at least 4 staff members. It is the Resort Manager’s job to work with our UK team to ensure that our guests are not on just another ski holiday, but to make sure they have a true ‘Ski Miquel Experience’.

This role is perfect for an experienced skier from a hospitality background with team management experience, great interpersonal skills, and a ‘can-do’ attitude. If you are prepared for hard work and long hours, then you will be rewarded with a job that gives you plenty of time on the mountain, as well as being able to interact with our guests, making it ideal for someone who is outgoing and loves meeting new people.


The Company
Ski Miquel is more than just an inclusive ski holiday company, we are a family-run business based in Hove (near Brighton) with over 40 years’ experience in the travel industry, and we like to think we're pretty good at what we do. 

The company was founded in 1980, after our owner and a colleague decided to start their own travel business.  With five permanent members of staff in our ‘offices’ when guests or staff call or e-mail; they know exactly who their talking to.  We don't like to hide behind e-mails or answerphone messages - We're upfront and personal, and we want to talk directly to our customers so that we can provide the best level of service for them again and again.  It's this close-knit work ethic that has turned Ski Miquel into the much-loved travel company it is today. 

With five or six members of staff in each resort, we work hard to achieve the level of service that our customers have come to expect.  Creating a fun and friendly atmosphere in our chalets is our main aim, and we do this by ensuring that we hire the best staff.  We own most of our chalet-hotels, and 85% of our bookings are either repeat guests or word-of-mouth recommendations.

If you’re looking for a great company to work for during the winter season then you’ve found it!
