GLENSHEE SEASONAL JOBS
If you’re looking to enjoy a season in the mountains, then Glenshee offers the ideal opportunity to
work where you play! Our season generally commences around late December and runs until
Easter, but can be longer or shorter depending on snow cover. We commence our recruitment
programme in November and successful applicants then await notification of a start date. The
date depends on the arrival of snow and employees should make themselves available as soon
as possible after that.
Accommodation is in short supply, but we do try to advise on the best options available. The
nearest village is Braemar (9 miles) to the North and to the South there are many small hamlets
and villages towards the town of Blairgowrie (26 miles). Staff transport is available from both
Braemar and Blairgowrie.
Staff are provided with a free lift pass and lift operators are provided with a uniform. A discount of
50% is offered on ski and snowboard hire and special staff prices are available in the cafes.
Transport is provided by mini bus to and from work from the surrounding areas. Working hours
are generally 40 hours per week, 8.30-5.00pm, over seven days, with two days off.
