Saffron Walden, United Kingdom Collett’s Mountain Holidays Full time

**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 read on.

**Qualifications and experience**:
To get the most out of this experience, we cannot over-exaggerate the importance of having a love for hiking/walking in the mountains.

**Essential Requirements**:

- We need outdoor enthusiasts with good hiking/hillwalking experience, and the ability to read and understand and navigate using an outdoor hiking map.
- Decent level of fitness.
- Excellent level of spoken & written English, as all our guests are English speaking.**Skills, Experience & Personality**
- Friendly & warm personality.
- Hard-working, focused and resourceful.
- Supportive and empathetic Team Player

**A bonus but not always essential**
- For Tuscany and the Dolomites only - A full Driving Licence with at least One Year’s driving experience accompanied by safe and sound driving skills.
- Any Outdoor Qualification, Mountain Leader Course etc.

**Many thanks for your interest in working with us**:
Once you feel you have read and understood what Collett’s has to offer and what is involved please send resume. We would be grateful if you could answer all of the questions, uploading your details, CV/Resume and a photo (which helps us to remember you better). If you would like to expand on any of the questions asked, please do. There is a maximum upload limit of 5MB.

**_ N.B._**_ For jobs in Italy & Austria we can only consider people who have an EU passport, or UK nationals who have the right to work in Italy or Austri through residency or work permit etc. In Switzerland we are looking for UK Nationals only._
