Cold Fusion Chalets are looking for talented chefs to join their fun, hardworking team this winter!
As we cater for independent / solo travelers, you will not be looking after large corporate groups or families but like-minded people just like you – looking to meet other people to enjoy some great skiing, food and wine and conversation.
Evening mealtimes in our chalets are more like dinner parties with delicious food and wine, good music and conversation. We encourage our staff to be part of our guests’ holidays and we appreciate staff who take the time with their guests, sharing stories and experiences with them over glass of wine after service or on a chairlift!
If you join the Cold Fusion team this winter, we guarantee that you will enjoy a professional yet fun work environment with great people and a lot of laughs!
Steve and Nicky (owners of Cold Fusion Chalets) run the business hands-on and are always around for their staff.
