About the Role
Lovell Camps is seeking dynamic, certified Snowsports Instructors who are excited to fully immerse themselves in the Swiss winter camp experience. Located in the beautiful region of Gstaad, this role is a unique hybrid: you will spend your days delivering top-tier ski or snowboard instruction on the mountain, and helping to deliver off-hill programs for children from around the world.

We are looking for team players who love working with children, thrive in a close-knit community environment, and are just as passionate about mentoring kids off-hill, as they are about teaching them parallel turns.

Off the Hill: Fully participate in all aspects of camp life. This includes sharing meals with the campers, providing evening and weekend supervision, running off-hill activities, and assisting with general camp maintenance duties.
Mentorship: Act as a positive role model, ensuring the well-being, safety, and happiness of the children at all times.
