Walk or Via Ferrata Organiser It is hard to think of a place anywhere in the world that offers walkers such easy access to spectacular variety and exhilaration, whether on a walk or a fixed cable ‘Via Ferrata’ scrambling route. Study our main website www.colletts.co.uk to get an idea of the awe-inspiring terrain that characterises the area’s walking trails and Via Ferrata routes. As a Walk or Via Ferrata Organiser you would spend half of your time out on the hill accompanying guests on our ‘Organised Walks or Via Ferratas’. The rest of your time is spent acting as a ‘Host’ and domestic hand, looking after our guests in our chalets, advising and helping them to get the most of their holidays. Every other day you would help with the usual domestic tasks, room cleans and changeovers, serving and washing up at breakfast and dinner etc., in the chalets. Experience Required Walk Organisers – Reasonable experience of walking in wilderness or mountainous terrain, confident with map reading and general navigation skills. You need to be relatively fit and confident in mountain terrain and happy to accompany groups of guests on any grade of walk whilst enjoying the day yourself. Outdoor qualifications are a bonus but not essential. Via Ferrata Organisers - Reasonable experience of traditional climbing (outdoors up to British grade HVS or 5+ UIAA) in the mountains and good navigation skills using a map in mountainous or wilderness areas. You need to be relatively fit and confident in high level mountain terrain and happy to accompany groups of guests on any grade of Via Ferrata whilst enjoying the day yourself. Outdoor qualifications are a bonus but not essential. We offer our guests ‘Organised’ Walks & Via Ferratas five days a week. These are not to be confused with ‘Guided’ Walks. We therefore call ourselves ‘Walk or Via Ferrata Organisers’, not Leaders or Guides. We go to great lengths to clarify to our guests the difference between a Collett’s ‘Organiser’ and a Qualified Mountain Guide. See www.colletts.co.uk for a taster of some of the world's most spectacular mountains and to learn more about us, then visit www.colletts.co.uk/work for more details about the jobs.
