Company Details

What do we do?

Collett’s is a small, independent holiday specialist, offering half-board, bed &breakfast and self-catering accommodation in five of Europe’s most stunning mountain ranges: The Italian Dolomites, the Austrian Alps, and in Spain, the Pyrenees, Picos de Europa and the Sierra Tejeda. People come with us to walk at high and medium level altitude, for the alpine flora, to try other more adventurous alpine activities or just to relax in alpine splendour.

What are our guests like?

On the whole our guests are easygoing and united by a passion of the mountains. In the main, they are British, from all walks of life and across a wide age range. They come mainly as couples, but also as groups of friends or families (sometimes with children), walking clubs or individuals. In recent years, we have built up a much valued ‘Repeat &Recommended’ clientele, which represents more than 60% of the 3000 visitors we welcome each summer.

Who and what are we looking for?

Each year we recruit people to join our resort teams on a seasonal basis. Ideally, you will be available from early/mid-May to the end of September for the summer season, and from late November until mid-April for the winter season. You must have a love of the outdoors, a genuine interest in (and enthusiasm for) new areas and the ability to contribute positively to a team environment. More importantly, you must enjoy people, as these are all hospitality jobs which we offer. A polite, sociable and obliging character is essential. Collett’s is justly proud of the outstanding quality of its past resort teams and we owe much of our success to their hard work, attention to detail and, most of all, their friendly and engaging characters. If you are the type of person who naturally enjoys the company of others and enjoys looking after people, whether as a cook or walking companion, then read on.
