Resort Manager for Ski Miquel

We are always on the lookout for sociable, experienced Resort Managers to join our overseas teams.

The Resort Manager is responsible for the running of our resort operations and managing a team of at least 4 staff members.  It is the Resort Manager’s job to work with our UK team to ensure that our guests are not on just another ski holiday and to make sure they have a true ‘Ski Miquel Experience’.

This role is perfect for an experienced skier from a hospitality background with team management experience, great interpersonal skills, and a ‘can-do’ attitude.  If you are prepared for hard work and long hours, then you will be rewarded with a job that gives you plenty of time on the mountain, as well as being able to interact with our guests, making it ideal for someone who is outgoing and loves meeting new people.

Please note that this position is currently only open to EU passport holders or those who already have the right to work in the European Union.
