Year Round Positions with Last Frontier Heliskiing at Bell 2 Lodge

A remote mountain lodge, no 'town' to speak of and 30 new faces and names to meet every week... still interested?

There are many departments involved to keep a smooth heliski operation going. Below you will find a list of positions and what you can expect from the job. Keep in mind, it is a job, though perhaps one of the most interesting you'll ever experience.

Everyone that has worked at Bell 2 Lodge has memories that will stay with them - the kind of stories that are shared on a chairlift or perhaps back at the bar after an epic day of powder. Each of the winter positions involves long days, intense client interaction and above all, the need to show our clients the best heliski experience in British Columbia. And yes, our winter staff enjoy the treat of heliskiing and heliboarding based on a staff rotation and available seats. Most positions at the lodge are based on a 2 weeks on - one week off model. Staff are encouraged to leave the lodge to enjoy their week off and are discouraged from having other employment during their time off.

Service staff at the lodge
Our lodge is open year round. We are in need of talented individuals to work with us in order to provide the best possible customer experience. With up to 50 people (guests and staff combined) to look after, servers and bartenders work with each other to ensure that clients needs are met and expectations - surpassed.
Kitchen staff at the lodge
All kitchen positions come together to produce tantalizing meals that keep our valuable clients happy and well fed. From dishwashing to the executive chef, the kitchen crew is pivotal to the overall experience of a Bell 2 Lodge visitor. Special menu planning is often required, so the more creative you are, the better.
Massage Therapists
From December to April each winter we are in need of massage therapists. You are the key to survival for many of our heliskiing guests that may not be able to dedicate the time to pre-trip conditioning workouts. Massage therapists also are responsible for morning Yoga/stretch classes that many guests attend. Your day may start at 06h00 and it could end at 22h00.
Radio Operators / Ski and Board Techs
Primary duty is maintaining radio contact with up to 2 helicopters at once. Willingness to learn our communications protocol and an ability to interpret topographical maps is critical. Secondary duties are as the ski/board tech. It's not all about waxing and smiling so interested applicants need to have resort-based tech experiences in a demanding atmosphere. Picture 30 people all anxious to get in the helicopter, can you manage AND keep a grin?
Internationally Certified Mountain Guides
Our guides are chosen not only for their guiding skills and qualifications, but also for their enthusiastic and outgoing personalities. They are professional guides who have passed a series of comprehensive examinations to qualify them as members of the A.C.M.G. and the U.I.A.G.M., the recognized Canadian and International Mountain Guide Associations. They are experienced at balancing exciting and challenging skiing/riding with the safety and enjoyment for the entire group. We do not employ tail-guides.
