SENIOR CHALET MANAGER – Meribel, Morzine
Are you an experienced Chalet Manager or hands-on leader and looking for your next challenge?
We want to hear from like-minded individuals who share our passion for food and drink, as well
as, of course, the mountains.
As a Senior Chalet Manager, you will be the primary point of contact for guests staying in one of
our Exclusive Collection chalets. As such, you will take the lead on all aspects of service delivery,
so must be a strong brand ambassador and lead your team by example. You will meet some
amazing people, both your guests and of course your colleagues. You will be supported by an
Assistant Chalet Manager, and will work alongside several Chalet Hosts, for whom it will be your

we also strive to create a positive environment for our staff. We structure our roles into realistic
shifts so you can be sure you will enjoy a positive work-life balance with plenty of time to explore
everything the resort has to offer. If you’re excited about working in some of the most exclusive
properties in the Alps, why not join us in the spectacular surroundings of the French Alps for a
season you will never forget?
