Maintenance and Gardening employee

RCN la Ferme du Latois, Coëx - Vendéé

"No day is the same and you often work outdoors. That's what makes this job so much fun!" (Thomas, maintenance and gardening employee at RCN Holiday Parks)

What you will be doing

Your role involves ensuring the smooth operation of buildings and rental accommodations. You'll handle maintenance tasks, including working on electrical and water systems, pipes, and various on-site projects. Keeping inventory well-organized is also in your domain.

From changing a broken lamp to resolving any restroom issues, you're the go-to person for quick fixes. Beyond that, you're the hands behind trimming the bushes, maintaining landscapes, and overseeing essential upkeep tasks, such as monitoring pool water quality. Together with your teammates, your collective efforts create the perfect setting for our guests to have an unforgettable holiday.

Together with the other departments, you make one team. Working at a holiday park requires flexibility. Beyond your main task in the kitchen, you lend a hand in other areas when needed. This way, you’ll discover more about the park to help our guests even better.

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

  • You are at least 18 years old;
  • You have experience in technical service and/or landscaping or want to gain this experience at RCN;
  • You speak Dutch and English (knowledge of French is not a must, but a plus);
  • You are available for at least 6 weeks in July and August.

What we offer

Working in maintenance and gardening at RCN is good for:

  • Your wallet. Your working conditions are in accordance with the French collective labour agreement for camp sites, called HPA (Hôtellerie de Plein Air). Your salary is from €1772 per month, depending on your knowledge and experience (based on 35 hours per week);
  • Independence. You can stay at the park with your colleagues if the commuting distance is too great. This also means easy social contact on days off and after working hours;
  • Your development. You will be well supervised and can gain or share professional expertise with us. Working in an international team is also great for your language development!
  • Employee discounts and activities. Such as drinks, joint activities and discounts on restaurants on site;
  • Nice colleagues. Yes, really! You make international friends;
  • Another. RCN uses its profit distribution for people who need help. Your work contributes to this as well.

 

In short: working abroad is an experience to remember!


 Will we hear from you soon?
