Housing and benefits

Location
Thredbo is situated on the Alpine Way and is 33km from Jindabyne in the Snowy Mountains of NSW. The Alpine Way is the main access road from NSW to Victoria and Thredbo's location is ideally situated for travellers between the two states. Cooma, the closest major town to Thredbo is about an hour's drive. Canberra, Australia's capital city, is approximately 2.5 hours drive from Thredbo, and Sydney is around 6 hours drive.

Housing information
For winter staff employed for the full season housing can be provided in Jindabyne, the service town for the ski resorts.

Apartments are fully furnished and self-contained with kitchens and laundry facilities. All accommodation is on a twin-share basis.

Staff take full responsibility for the care of the property during their occupancy.  

We do not provide accommodation for short stays, i.e. school holidays, weekends etc.

Benefits
Thredbo is open 365 days and when you work with us you are able to enjoy all that is the fabulous Snowy Mountains. When the snow falls, employees* receive a winter season pass so you can get out and enjoy the crisp fresh mountain air while riding in Australia’s premier snow resort.

When you are working, staff meal deals are on offer year round in the Pub Bistro and in winter at Friday Flat.

So you can pick up new on-snow skills or improve on what you already know, Thredbo's Snow Sports School has free ski and snowboard lesson weeks for staff.

There are a variety of incentive schemes organised by individual departments and the always popular “tip” card is an instant reward as a thank-you for a job well done.

In case you need to purchase that special jacket, your gloves have seen better days or you simply need a shopping fix, Thredbo Sports offers staff a 25% discount on retail products.

Just because the snow goes doesn’t mean the fun stops; the bevy of summer activities gives the summer team plenty to do. Your summer staff pass gives you access to the AGU rated 9 hole golf course (it’s Australia’s highest), tennis courts, chairlift (and the amazing Main Range) and the bobsled all for free.  

There are other benefits you can receive after a qualifying period and some are even extended to family members.
