Your role
As an activities employee you will develop, organise, conduct and present all kinds of activities and shows. You’ll be responsible for making our guests’ holidays even more fun. Your job is to put a smile on our guests’ faces. Singing, dancing and acting will play a big role in this.
What you will be doing
Your tasks will be extremely varied. As well as performing and conducting, you’ll be busy promoting the activities and coming up with amusing and creative ideas. There is no fixed programme so all the more room for your own creative or sporting ideas. Together with your colleagues, you’ll be thinking up the most enjoyable creative or sporting activities and bringing the RCN mascots, Alex Adventure & Sammy the dog, to life. You know how to motivate people and get them to join in with the activities.
Who we are
La Ferme du Latois is located in the scenic French countryside but also close to the sea. Formerly it was a farmstead but now it is an atmospheric park with a pleasant rural feel. The old stables is now in use as the main building and there are many other remaining references to the romantic farming past. There’s everything to do in the surrounding area. Inside quarter of an hour’s drive you’ll be on the beach. That’s just as well, because the Vendée has the most sunshine hours in the whole of France!
What we are looking for
A lot! But that’s what makes it so challenging and instructive. Working in a holiday park puts big demands on flexibility. Needless to say, you understand that this job will entail working at weekends and on public holidays, all during the holiday season.
You:
- are at least 18 years old
- excel at a creative or sporting activity, or have relevant training
- are an energetic, motivated and pleasant personality
- have good social skills
- are an enthusiastic teamplayer
- knowledge of French, Dutch and/or German is not essential but is a nice-to-have
- can provide a recent Certificate of Conduct
- are available for a minimum of 6 weeks in July and August
What we offer
Working in a holiday atmosphere for a growing organisation! A job full of variety at a fantastic location. We will give you a lot of autonomy and self-responsibility. As an employee with us you’ll have lots of space for new ideas and excellent growth opportunities for self-development. You’ll be in the countryside, meeting lots of pleasant visitors as part of a tight team of pleasant colleagues at one of France’s most enjoyable holiday parks. Accommodation at the park is possible but not mandatory. If you stay in the park, you will be charged a small contribution. You will be working under a French contract. The French working conditions for campsites (Collective Labour Agreement known as HPA=Hôtellerie de Plein Air) will apply.
