    Description

    Our Camping is a small, family-driven holiday-resort on the island Stord in the west coastal region of Norway, just in the middle of the two cities of Bergen and Stavanger.

    We operate 7 cabins of different standard, 4 motel-rooms, a campsite and some motor boats.

    During the summer season we have a lot of work to do and offer a full time job from May until the middle of September.

    The work for our helper will consist of everything from cleaning, gardening, painting indoors and outdoors, tidying and whatever will show up in daily business. But cleaning cabins and rooms and the sanitary building of our campsite will be the main job.
    As we are business hosts we will pay you a wage for every hour you work.
    The daily working hours depend on how many customers checked in the day before and the weather (for outside workings) and can vary between 2 and 8 hours.

    As accommodation we offer you our caravan. Here you have your private space and you can prepare your own meals.

    We need an open minded and flexible worker. You should speak English, German or Norwegian on a medium level.
    You should be aware that our location is about 12 km from the next town, surrounded by sea and hills.

    We need you from the middle of May until the end of August maybe the middle of September.
    We would prefer someone who is willing to stay the whole time.
    We help you with the authorities (tax card) if you are EU-citizen. Applicants from other countries, who need a working permit for Norway, should care about that on their own and in advance.

    What else ...

    We are located in the amazing fjord nature of Norway on the island Stord. The next town, Leirvik, is about 12 km away. There are no neighbours, we are only surrounded by nature and the main road.
    Taking the bus you can visit Bergen and Stavanger.
    Walking in the hills you can observe nature and animals such as the sea eagle. If you are lucky you will see some whales coming along in the fjord.
