AddressOur Road Crew are essential members of the resort's team. As a member of the Maintenance & Operations team, our Road Crews’ primary role is to ensure that employees and visitors are able to move about the resort safely by clearing snow from the roads and carparks. Gone are the days of shoveling snow by hand...you'll have access to the snow plough to get the job done quicker and easier. The snow plough is a bit of a 'beast' so you'll need to have a Heavy Rigid license to drive one!
When you're not clearing the snow you’ll assist the Resort Ops team with a variety of other tasks such as, traffic management, chain fitting, waste/recycling collection and general customer service. Given the majority of your work will be completed outdoors, we will provide you with snow pants, a jacket, and boots for the season to keep you warm.
When you're not working in the snow, it's time to play in the snow! On your days off, make the most of the many snow activities, such as skiing/snowboarding, Tank Hill terrain Park, tobogganing and snowshoeing.
Nestled only 2.5 hours from the heart of Melbourne, Mt Baw Baw is Melbourne’s closest downhill ski, snowboard, toboggan, and snow play resort....'make tracks' this winter for a unique employment opportunity.
