We are looking for someone to be deputy to our resort manager for next season. You must have good maintenance skills and be able to drive as well as not minding getting stuck in with more menial tasks such as cleaning! NB You must be an EU passport holder i.e. issued in France, Spain, Ireland etc. or have a french working permit which you can get with a Canadian or Australian passport but not at the moment with a UK passport. Please do not apply if you only have a UK passport as sadly right now we can't get the relevant paperwork to be able to employ you. We are a family run company and take good care of our staff. It's hard to give a basic job outline as it's so varied but we have tried below and your additional area of responsibility would be maintenance and driving where required. There is lots of time to get out and ski which is after all one of the main reasons for doing a ski season. Megeve is an excellent place to spend a ski season with a huge ski area, there's great off-piste and you get plenty of time off to be able to enjoy your skiing. We work as a small team so there's always people to head on up the mountains with.
