Maintenance & Logistics Support

Resorts: Morzine & Les Gets

The brief is simple. Help us to maintain an amazing portfolio of luxury ski chalets and support the wider team in delivering an exceptional level of service to our guests. Please note, candidates for this position must be available to commence work on a full-time basis from the start of November to ensure sufficient training and set-up time prior to the start of the season.

As the Maintenance and Logistics Support person, you will be the primary point of contact for the seasonal management teams regarding maintenance issues. You will need to respond in a timely manner to general and emergency maintenance ‘callouts’ with the intention to resolve issues on site and/or identify the root cause of issues. You will report to the Operations Director who will manage overall Facilities Management. You will proactively visit properties on a weekly basis in order to stay on top of maintenance issues, pre-empting them where possible, as well as provisioning a variety of support to the wider resort operations.

You will meet some amazing people, both our guests and of course your colleagues. You will be a support mechanism for the whole team but will also need to work with a high level of autonomy. Whilst we have extremely high expectations of our team, we also strive to create a positive environment for our staff. We structure our roles into realistic shifts so you can be sure you will enjoy a positive work-life balance with plenty of time to explore everything the resort has to offer. If you're excited about working in some of the most exclusive properties in the Alps, why not join us in the spectacular surroundings of the French Alps for a season you will never forget?
