Operations Support Executive (Permanent, France-based)

Description

Skiworld — the UK's largest independently owned pure winter-sports operator, providing ski season employment since 1982, running catered chalets, apartments and hotels across 10 snow-sure resorts — is hiring an Operations Support Executive on a permanent, France-based contract. Posted 15 August 2026 for the 2026/27 season and beyond. You will use your French language, organisational and practical skills to help keep Skiworld's mountain operations running smoothly across the Alps, supporting the resort teams and handling the problem-solving that keeps a winter operation moving. Unlike Skiworld's seasonaire roles this is a permanent position based in France, so strong spoken and written French is essential alongside organisation and problem-solving ability. Skiworld operates in St Anton (Austria) and Alpe d'Huez, Courchevel, La Plagne, Les Deux Alpes, Les Arcs, Meribel, Tignes, Val d'Isere and Val Thorens (France). The company is a joint founder and member of SBiT (Seasonal Businesses in Travel), which promotes fair and compliant employment practices for seasonal workers in the EU.
