Who can we employ and who are we looking for?

Each year we recruit people to join our resort teams on a seasonal basis. We need teams for the following seasons:

• Spring in Tuscany (March – April).
• Summer in the Italian Dolomites, Austrian Alps and Swiss Alps (June to end of September).
• Autumn in Tuscany (September to end of October).

In each place we have small teams of two people (three in the Dolomites), so we generally prefer to employ pairs of friends or couples, and the occasional single in the Dolomites.

In Italy & Austria we need EU Nationals. We can also employ UK & other non-EU Nationals if they already have residency in the country, and all the accompanying paperwork which allows them to work there legally. For example, in Italy that would be a Permesso di Soggiorno & a Codice Fiscale.

In Switzerland we can only employ UK Nationals.

You must have a love of the outdoors and plenty of experience of hiking/walking in the hills and mountains with good navigational skills using an outdoor map. You need to have a genuine interest in (and enthusiasm for) exploring new areas. There is very little to do in the villages in which we are based unless you are an outdoor enthusiast. If you are looking for a lively nightlife, forget it!

A polite, sociable and obliging character is essential. Collett’s is justly proud of the outstanding quality of its past resort teams, and we owe much of our success to their hard work, attention to detail and, most of all, their friendly and engaging personalities. If you are the type of person who naturally contributes to a team environment, thrives on the company of others and enjoys looking after people, then apply today.
