STAFF ACCOMMODATION OVERVIEW
BSL has a variety of staff accommodations on and off mountain where you will be housed during the season. Your bed allocation should be displayed when you fill out your arrival form – if there is no bed allocation displayed on the form please follow up with your hiring manager. Some team members will be housed at the base of Mt Buller. These are all shared accommodations with shared facilities. Complimentary staff transport is available for team members to get to and from work if living off mountain/valley. Allocation is based on your hours, arrival date and the position you hold with BSL throughout the winter season. Only team members committing to the full season and with unlimited availability will be offered the opportunity to live in staff accommodation.
Subsidized rent (inc. bills) is paid weekly through a payroll deduction with costs between $160– $190 per person, per week, depending on location or if it’s on/off mountain. Rooms are in a dorm bunk bed set up style and you may be required to share with UP TO 3 other BSL team members. Lodges are fully furnished. A bond will be deducted and will be returned end of season upon completing a clearance form.
PLEASE NOTE: All Staff Accommodation is strictly non-smoking (vape and cigarettes)
You may request one other BSL employee to share with during the season; however this is not a guarantee. If you are travelling alone, roommates will be allocated to you. Please note whilst we make every attempt to house the majority of our team, in some cases we are unable to offer suitable accommodation to all team members.
