LOTS of nightlife with bars, clubs and extracurricular options

Saturation of Aussies is HIGH; for a lot of Aussies, this is the only ski resort they have ever heard of

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur, adipisicing elit. Enim nobis quas officia quae laborum quod ducimus obcaecati nisi, dolorem magni error minima tempore dicta fugit sequi dignissimos ea omnis suscipit.

Given the location of this resort to the west coast, this is the warmest resort of all alternatives, typically only suffering freezing temps (anything below -20, which usually lasts for a couple weeks)

There are a range of outdoor and indoor roles available. Lift operations, base area operations (snow clearing, parking & cleaning), retail, rentals, ticket sales and scanning, food & beverage, tube park, and ski school sales. The number of each role is based on seasonal requests from the resort.

This employer is world-renowned, so it will look great on your resume. For those looking to climb the management ladder, you must stick around for back-to-back seasons to work your way up. Remember, Whistler Blackcomb is a Vail property, and you must ask your managers about 'transferring' your roles back to Australia. This is not a process TWHC deals with – so please ask your managers should you want to head back to OZ and still work for the company.

This resort offers a free ski pass with your employment.

This resort is the largest ski resort in North America, with 2 massive ski mountains connected by the Peak to Peak Gondola. The longest run is over 11 km long. Between both hills, there are over 3000 acres of skiable terrain. She is the biggest!

Vail owns and operates Whistler Blackcomb, amongst many other resorts mainly based in the USA. Your pass gives you limited access to each alternative as a staff member. Before you leave on an epic road trip – ensure you have advised your managers of your plans to visit other Vail resorts, as they need to complete internal emails and checks before your departure. You will not be granted access if you rock up and expect to be let on the hill with your WB staff pass. Ask and clarify details before you go!

Whistler Blackcomb is an easy 1.5HR drive up the Sea to Sky Highway from Vancouver. Vancouver has a large international airport and is only an hour's drive to the USA land border with Washington state.

The TWHC will assist with your first season's contract. The ball is in your court – we help you get the job; you need to work hard to keep it. Ongoing extensions of contracts are based on seasonal performance and at the determination of management, as is Housing. If in doubt – ask your manager.

It's the biggest and most well-known. For many Aussies, it's the only resort you may have heard of, and It's usually where your mates want to go. Great nightclub and party action. With popularity comes more crowds which can mean more lines for lifts etc. This resort will do over 35,000 skier visits in one day over Christmas, so it gets hectic. There are 2 massive ski mountains in one place, so the in-bounds skiing and riding are phenomenal and plentiful. So is backcountry skiing. In the summer, if you are a keen mountain biker, alpine hiker or love to climb…yep….this is your place!

It is absolutely packed to the eyeballs and super busy. Lots of staff do find Whistler expensive. When you have more to do regarding nightlife, bars, drinking and social activities, you will likely spend more of your savings. Whistler has the most significant housing crisis out of any place in Canada. If you are not going through our program to secure a bed or having a bed pre-arranged, your chances of finding Housing at the resort are next to none. They also don't have any temporary accommodation, so you would be paying top dollar to start in a hotel if you don't have Housing.
