The sports schools at Coronet Peak and The Remarkables are run by NZSKI and instructors and athletes from around the world travel to Queenstown every year to teach and train. You will be working on the full roster for the first 5 weeks, and after this time there is the possibility to work part-time around level 3 training (this is dependant on the employee/employer relationship and work available).
