What to Expect Working in a Ski Chalet in France
A ski chalet job in France is the perfect opportunity to grow your skill set and boost your resume in the field of hospitality. It’s perfect for hardworking, adventurous people who want to make friends from all over the world while earning money. Whether you are looking for temporary or full-time work in France, you’ll find an opportunity here that suits your needs. Expect to wake up each day to stunning scenery and plenty of time to ski. If you aren’t an experienced skier, don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of time to learn.
These ski chalet jobs vary as you may be placed with a business which owns multiple chalets or a privately owned accommodation. Staff members will work 6-day weeks but will have plenty of time to ski throughout the workday. Regardless of the position, you’ll be expected to have some level of catering or hospitality experience. Employees with diverse skill sets can thrive in one of these positions. Great communication skills, customer service, organization, and attention to detail will make you a prime candidate for one of these positions. Employees are expected to be enthusiastic about their work and keep a positive demeanour to ensure that guests have the best experience possible. We have plenty of chalet jobs in France but also around Europe in countries like Austria, Norway, France, and Switzerland.
These job packages offer perks too. Employees will be offered free accommodation, food, travel, ski hire, and lift tickets. This is all in addition to a weekly salary. Job positions include chalet girl, general host, chef, or manager. All positions require different responsibilities but you might find yourself organizing travel bookings, shopping and cooking for guests, chauffeuring, housekeeping, or interacting with guests. Please get in touch if you’re interested in any of these positions or other ski chalet jobs.
OUR CURRENT SKI CHALET VACANCIES
We are recruiting an experienced chalet Host/Driver couple to help in the running of a privately-owned chalet in Chatel, Portes du Soleil region, for the 2018/19 winter season. The chalet is a recently renovated 6-bedroom luxury chalet based in the heart of the resort. The owners of the chalet are not in resort, so we are looking for someone who can work independently with minimal support (although you will also be working alongside a chalet manager, chef and driver). You will be reporting to the Chalet Manager. Initial training will be provided by the chalet owners at the start of the season.
We are recruiting for a Resort Assistant and Administrator, in Courchevel 1850 for a small luxury chalet operator. You must have excellent administrative skills, have pre-existing resort knowledge, managerial experience, a solid background in hospitality, a strong work ethic and a desire to go that extra mile. This position is a fantastic opportunity for career development within the ski industry and beyond and will have plenty of ski time available.
We are looking for a welcoming and hospitable cook/host chalet couple for a 6-bedroom chalet in Châtel, France.

We require an experienced chef with a fine dining background (ideally with Michelin/AA Rosette experience). Preferably, you will be classically trained and should be passionate about preparing stunningly presented and truly mouth-watering dishes. You will have the freedom to use your experience and flair to develop and deliver creative menus of the highest standard, whilst remaining entirely flexible with regard to the individual guests’ requirements.

The primary responsibility is for the provision of exceptional quality food and drinks, and there is limited budgeting and reporting, and no shopping required!
Amazing food, delicious drinks and creative service, all set within some of the finest chalets in the Alps. Why not join this fantastic team for a season you’ll never forget? We’re looking for talented and enthusiastic chefs to be responsible for delivering a luxurious dining experience to your guests while using your creativity to refine your own style and menus.
