We are looking for Housekeepers to service our 45-person Aravis Lodge.
Please note the requirement of an EU passport - for the sake of clarity this means a passport issued by an EU country/right to work within the EU.
Your job will include all housekeeping, room servicing, laundry duties and ensuring our guests are well cared for throughout their stay. As we specialise in short breaks we have two changeover days per week - busy days when up to 22 guest bedrooms and bathrooms need to be thoroughly cleaned and remade for the new guests.
During these days you will be working to a very tight and pressured deadline and it is often an intense few hours of cleaning whilst ensuring that the highest standards are maintained. Other days are more relaxed and you are able to manage your workload and timings accordingly. Daily servicing of the rooms is required and the communal areas all need to be cleaned and presented, as well as laundry duties carried out (washing towels, ironing pillowcases etc).
A well organised approach to the tasks will ensure that you are able to enjoy plenty of skiing time during the day. As well as the domestic side, your role will involve guest interaction - waiting tables and washing up for dinner a couple of times a week, on a rota basis, to assist the chalet host team.
You will also be involved in the day to day delivery of our holidays through such things as evening activities (sledging, snowshoe walks) on evenings you aren't serving dinner. We all work very closely as a team.
