Ski School Employment

Ski Academy works with some of the best and busiest ski school around Europe. All the ski schools that are connected with Ski Academy are successful and earned top awards in their own field. We will be working with three main ski schools which are Oberschneider, Wengen and Aviemore School of Snowsports which are one of the biggest in their respective countries.

Students can be expected to teach all kinds of levels and all kinds of people from the young to the old with the majority of the work over the peak season (Christmas, half term and Easter). As with all ski schools flexibility is the key.
