Location: Europe (non-UK), Switzerland, Verbier

If you enjoy driving and have a knack with people, then you are a great candidate to be a Transfer Driver, driving guests between Geneva airport and the ski resort in 7 to 16-seater Mercedes and VW minibuses.

Our Transfer Drivers are punctual, smart, sociable, customer service-orientated, and hard working. The ideal candidate for the AlpineXpress Transfer Driver job is:

  • Mature, responsible, reliable as demonstrated through prior work experience
  • Possesses an impeccable driving history with extensive driving experience (preferably with a TPP, C1 or D1 qualification*)
  • Flexible on work hours according to demand of the business (i.e. additional shifts at holiday times, early mornings & late nights, long hours)
  • Good with people and enjoys chatting with guests
  • Able to clean and maintain the vehicles to the highest standard between trips
  • English-speaking (other languages not required)
  • Desire to do a ski season for the love of skiing, and not the partying (zero tolerance policy)

We encourage early-retirees or other mature candidates with driving experience to consider applying as our successful past candidates have ranged in age from 27 to 65. Our staff housing is suitable for all ages and for couples with a friendly, family like atmosphere.

We offer successful applicants optional accommodation, processing of your residence permit (EU passport required), support with obtaining the necessary driving license, discount on lift pass, ski equipment & ski lessons, and a minimum of two ski days per week (weekend only jobs also available - for those wanting to ski more).

The Fine Print

*All drivers not in possession of a C1 or D1 qualification must complete a D1 minibus driving qualification in their home country. Candidates in possession of a standard UK car license in good standing will be assisted through the process of adding the D1 qualification, however please bear in mind that this process may take 60 days so please apply early.

AlpineXpress operates a strict zero tolerance policy for alcohol, and non-compliance will result in immediate dismissal and repatriation to the UK.

Limited openings available, application at the earliest possible date recommended.

To apply: Email jobs@alpinexpress.com with your CV and a scan / photo of the front & back of your driving license (with counterpart if UK, see www.gov.uk/view-driving-licence).
