​

This is NOT your average job. It’s a unique opportunity for a driven individual who enjoys working with their hands and fancies turning a love of winter sports into a side income.

​

SkiZilla is building a network of skilled technicians across the UK, so skiers and snowboarders can get a proper hand service wherever they live. Wherever you’re based, we’d love to hear from you.

​

About SkiZilla
Founded in London in 2019, SkiZilla offers high-quality waxing, sharpening and minor base repair for skis and snowboards. Everything is done by hand: no machines and no base grinding. We’re one of the only providers in the UK to offer a doorstep ski service, and we’re now taking that nationwide.

We’re a small, independent business with no office and no middle management. We’re looking for self-starters who are comfortable working with minimal supervision.

 

The role
This is a freelance contract role, carried out from your own location. You can accept as many jobs as you like, but we ask that you can commit to a minimum of one day per week throughout the winter season. In larger towns and cities, there’s realistic scope for this to fill up to three days a week during peak months.

 

What you’ll need

• To be based in the UK (and have the right to work in the UK)

• A workspace where you can service skis (ideally a garage/workshop)

• A vehicle and valid driving licence (helpful, not essential)

 

Skills and attributes

• Hand maintenance and repair skills: waxing, sharpening and minor base repair with P-Tex

• Good customer service and maintenance knowledge

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

• The ability to work independently and remotely

• A keen eye for detail

• A genuine love of winter sports

• Technical certification or relevant training (a bonus, not a requirement)

 

How it works

• Jobs are allocated to you by SkiZilla, and you speak with customers directly by phone/WhatsApp as well as in person

• Customers either drop their kit at your door, or you offer a collection and delivery service

• At the end of each month, you invoice for the work you’ve completed

• Discounts are available on ski tuning equipment when you need to top up
