Working as a chalet or hotel concierge is a great way to spend a winter at a ski resort and get paid for the privilege! It's hard work, but many people who do it return again for a second year. Although there are no formal qualifications to work as a chalet or hotel concierge, employers will look for certain qualities such as:
An outgoing personality
Good customer service experience
Solid foreign language skills
The ability to cook
Chalet and hotel concierges are expected to provide a selection of well-cooked, healthy meals for their guests. This involves everything from menu planning to shopping to maintaining a budget. In addition, they are expected to clean the chalet or hotel room so that it is clean and tidy when the guests return from a day's skiing.
The upside of all this is that when you are not working, you are free to relax and ski! There are numerous websites that advertise these positions, but be aware that many hire up to six months in advance, so start planning early if this is a position that interests you.
