Do you dream of working as a ski instructor for an entire season in New Zealand? Are you looking to skip the summer in exchange for a snowy and mountainous landscape? If so, you’re in good company. Over the years, New Zealand has quietly become a hotspot for the adventurous skier. The vast range of outdoor activities and extreme sports, from canyoning and caving to heli-skiing and bungee jumping, are anchored in natural surroundings that not even a postcard photo could do justice. That’s why Snowminds is excited to help experienced instructors to have the opportunity to spend a season shredding with the Kiwis!
As an certified instructor, you can look forward to a season in a country long considered to offer some of the finest skiing in the southern hemisphere. Equally important, the snow culture in New Zealand is massive – not only are there cosy and picturesque alpine villages, but also entire metropolises, which are obsessed with skiing (i.e. Queenstown). With a season that often lasts from June to September, a season in New Zealand makes it possible to only keep your skis packed up for a single day per year: the day you fly back to the northern hemisphere.
