Search for a Chalet

Recruitment

Operating since 2001, Ski Armadillo is an independent privately owned Ski Chalet Company offering affordable luxury holidays in Verbier, Switzerland.

We strongly believe that our most important assets, alongside the chalets, are our staff. We encourage you to work hard and play hard, making full use of the mountains and skiing five days a week, on some of the best slopes in the world.

You don’t have to be a good skier, but if you enjoy the outdoors and are looking for fun and the opportunity to meet new friends, a season in the Alps is a good place to start!

You may be a university graduate looking to take a break prior to starting a career or you may already have that career, which you would like to get away from for a few months. If you are a little younger then you need to show relevant experience and maturity, as our aim is professionalism, quality and fun.

All applicants must be EU Passport holders.
