We are a luxury chalet company, based in the resort of St Martin de Belleville in the 3 Valleys ski area. We operate 6 boutique ski chalets each with chef, host and driver teams. We have a staff of around 25, including management. We are an owner-operated business, now in our tenth year and we have developed a reputation for a luxurious yet friendly catered chalet service that is tailored to our guests’ needs. We have a passion for delivering the highest levels of service to our clients and our success depends on us finding the right team who share our passion. We are seeking professional, motivated people with the desire to deliver the best possible standards.

Our hosts are the main point of contact with our guests and should have a passion for providing excellent service and always putting the guests’ needs first. They must take pride in their work, have extremely high standards, be conscientious and considerate, have great social and conversational skills and enjoy working as part of a team. This will require a strong work ethic and an ability to self-motivate and manage responsibilities without constant guidance.

You will be fully supported by our management team, who will visit each chalet regularly to liaise with the guests and to ensure that the White Mountain Chalets product is being delivered consistently across all chalets at all times. You will therefore have the support of management at all times if there are problems that need sorting out; however, our employees will be expected to work on their own initiative and be capable of using their organisational skills to ensure the guests’ needs are always met – our employees are our biggest asset and the face of our company and make a real difference to our success.
