We employ up to 80 staff each season which gives Alpine Elements a unique advantage in offering the chance to work summer or winter and, if visa restrictions allow, back-to-back seasonal opportunities.

The majority of our guests are from the UK, therefore it is compulsory that all applicants are fluent in English to be considered for a position.

We are an active company, and we whole heartedly encourage our staff to get involved in mountain activities. Regardless of whether you are new to a sport, or a seasoned pro, we are confident you will find a home in France. We offer an encouraging environment for all levels of experience in a company where we actively look to promote from within.

Our recruitment process is designed to see the person behind the CV. Our personal approach enables us to achieve your goal of working a season, and making the most of that season, whilst delivering excellent guest service. We are looking for passionate applicants who can balance a demanding position whilst maintaining a good work/life balance.

Together we will ensure you will find & be in your element.
