  Description

  My name is Andrew, it was always my dream to one day open my own ski lodge. After a long career in IT and having worked for many years in some of the UK’s largest architectural practices I decided to take the leap and after working in Madarao as a Snowboard Instructor a few years ago I was hooked.
  
  The name was inspired by Madarao’s amazing location within the Japanese Alps. It is ideally situated within the region, which offers the perfect opportunity to explore a number of local resorts all within a 30min drive. The lodge is under a 2 hour direct train ride on the world famous ‘Bullet Train’ from Tokyo. After purchasing the lodge in 2023 I spent a couple of years renovating it to what you see here today with the aim of providing a warm home for guests from around the world to enjoy.
  
  I am looking for people to assist in running my lodge during the winter season who share a passion for exploring mountains, countryside and culture on offer in Japan. You will be part of a team ensuring guests have a wonderful stay while maintaining a high level of professionalism. You will be part of a multicultural team, with the opportunity of meeting guests from across the globe.
  
  All candidates must have a valid working visa for Japan and an International driving license.
