Front of house will serve food, take orders and engage with our patrons throughout the afternoon/evening.
All staff will live in the heart of the town, with plenty of time each day before opening to ride on the mountains plus 2 guaranteed days off each week.
Please only send us a message if you fit the following criteria:
-You can commit to the full season
-You can acquire a valid working visa
-You are willing to work hard, and play hard!

Accommodation
The staff accomodation is situated upstairs from the restaurant so you have a short commute to work.
The accomodation is shared, with a hangout/kitchen room for just kicking back! The entrance to the staff quarters will be separate from the restaurant and locked with a number lock so will be secure and safe at all times.
Stepping out onto the street will put you in the centre of Hakuba with tonnes of bars and restaurants nearby, with the closest ski resort (Happo One) just a 5 minute walk from the front door.
You will be given one staff meal per day when on shift, with adequate space and storage to make your own food if you so desire.
What else ...
Our building is located two doors down from the central bus station. With an all-mountain season pass, you can take the regular shuttle bus freely to any of Hakubas 7 main resorts and keep your riding fresh.
There is plenty else to do around town, and our hope is you will take full advantage of living and working with our other staff!
We want to keep the staff accomodation safe for everyone so there will be no parties upstairs, however bringing a friend or two back to hang out with is fine as long as your other housemates are also fine with it!
