Job Description

Posted Wednesday, 13 August 2025 at 10 : 00 am

Are you fueled by a passion for the outdoors? Is there something indescribable that draws you to the mountains? Let’s chat. Joining our crew is more than just working at aski field — it’s a lifestyle. Seasonal work is a rollercoaster, but it’s one that creates lasting memories you’ll talk about for a lifetime.

Our NZSki community has been growing since 1947 and continues to offer the best experience for our crew, locals, and guests alike. Everyone at Coronet Peak, The Remarkables, and Mt Hutt cares for the mountains and shares a passion for snowsports and the surrounding regions. Our success is due to our excellent customer service, first-class facilities, majestic scenery, and wild terrain.

This role requires you to greet staff in Methven and transport them safely, friendly, and informatively to and from our ski area. You will also shuttle guests and their gear around our car parks and assist the Roads Department with their daily duties.

This is a varied and autonomous role suited to anyone who enjoys interacting with guests and holds the relevant licenses.

About the Role

  • Transport staff between Methven and Mt Hutt daily, and shuttle guests from lower car parks to the base area and back
  • Drive with fuel efficiency and guest comfort in mind
  • Practice safe and courteous driving at all times
  • Load skis and snowboards onto racks securely for guests
  • Adhere to schedules and timetables
  • Assist with bus loading as needed
  • Respond to weather and road conditions appropriately
  • Provide friendly and engaging service to Mt Hutt guests
  • Efficiently fit and remove snow chains, and store them correctly
  • Manage customer complaints and queries professionally
  • Maintain clear and timely radio communication
  • Perform bus start-up checks each morning
  • Assist with car parking, road patrolling, snow gritting / clearing, and helping guests with snow chains
  • Support other departments, such as Food and Beverage, as required

About You

  • Exceed guest expectations with personable hosting and professional driving
  • Maintain a reasonable level of fitness, as the role can be physically demanding
  • Be willing to assist in other departments and take on additional duties
  • Understand that employment depends on weather conditions and hours cannot be guaranteed
  • Skills and Qualifications

  • Valid NZ driver's license, class 2 license, and P endorsement (must be obtained before starting)
  • Experience driving light vehicles, loaders, and trucks on snow and ice is advantageous
  • As Kaitiaki of the mountains, we are committed to our environment, people, and communities. We support diversity and inclusion and aim to create a positive working environment.

    Uniforms are provided; just bring your own base layers.

    Additional reasons to join us include :

  • 3 Peak winter season pass (Full Time crew)
  • Discounted day passes at other ski areas
  • Transport to / from mountains
  • Wellbeing support
  • Discounted nutritious hot meals daily
  • Discounts at local eateries, bars, breweries, and retail outlets

  • Social activities off mountain
  • Recognition programs with prizes
  • Free ski lessons for full-time crew
