We are looking for energetic individuals in this social and occasionally technical role to join us for the upcoming season.
Working at Mt Ruapehu, you'll be surrounded by like-minded people who are flexible, willing to have a crack where needed, work hard and then ski/ride even harder!
Everyone here shares a passion for the mountain and the surrounding region because of the endless possibilities for adventure. Whether it's because you love nature, the truly unique world heritage area, or the obvious draw card of skiing/riding the volcano, there are opportunities for real fun at every turn.
THE DAY TO DAY
If you are not having fun in this department, you are not doing it right. If you love the outdoors and want to be part of an awesome team then there may be a role here for you. The Lift Operations team (within the Field Operations Department) are responsible for getting our guests onto the lifts and up to the ski area in a safe and efficient manner. As well as providing an efficient and friendly service to guests, you will need to:
- Make sure our guests have loads of fun!
- Provide up-to-date and accurate information to the public on products, prices and what they can expect to experience on Mt Ruapehu Ski Areas.
- Ensure all safety and operational checks have been completed thoroughly and within set timeframes, and that high quality standards are maintained.
- Deal with complaints, compliments and suggestions in a helpful and empathetic manner.
- Provide assistance to your fellow team members and around the mountain at all times.
- Carry out any other duties as required by the Head of Department and/or Supervisors, including assisting other departments as required.
