Canterbury, New Zealand Porters Ski Area Full time

The main function of this role is proper selection, fit and adjustment of the customer’s skis or snowboards, boots, bindings and poles according to their height, weight, and skiing ability.

Minimum qualification and experience:

- No previous experience in ski industry needed, training provided
- Friendly, personable, and comfortable working with people
- Strong customer service skills
- English fluency
- Passion for ski industry (preferred)

At Porters, we work together as a unified team across all departments. As rates of busyness fluctuate from department to department, on any one day you could be asked by management to work outside of your given job description, so a flexible attitude to helping your fellow team members where possible is essential to every position. Management will not abuse this by requesting your assistance outside of your physical ability or your job training level.

Please include a cover letter (within the same file) with your current curriculum vitae. Additionally, please state if you want a full-time or part-time position, part-time means weekend and holidays only. For the Ski & Snowboard School, please include with your CV a copy of relevant qualifications, plus a photograph.

Also please remember to tell us if you have any managerial or supervisory experience.

All applicants need to send a recent passport-type photograph plus a copy of your work visa (where applicable).

We are only able to help fully qualified instructors, patrollers and groomer operators to obtain a work permit. Please contact us directly for sponsored visa options.
