About work

Work at Tromsø Outdoor activity and rental centre includes multiple various work tasks related to direct work with the customers, taking care of the equipment, bookings of activities, sales, tourist information, and maintenance of the site.

Main operations are focused on renting equipment out, advising our guests on local destinations for their activities, instructing guests on how to use the equipment and where to go to make the best of their holidays, sale of activities and merchandise in our shop, opening and closing the site if needed, processing and preparing reservations, keeping order and cleaning (inside and outside of the shop, workshop, and office areas) and ski/ splitboard and other equipment maintenance and service.

We look for people who have a passion for outdoor activities and work with people in the first place. We work in a team and need people with various skills - from great knowledge of ski touring and splitboarding gear to social personalities happy to answer our visitors questions for a few hours every day. We look both for people who spend each evening outdoors and can always say how the conditions in the mountains are right now to people who like to work inside and are not necessarily active. However if you never worked in tourism and have no knowledge of winter activities, equipment, or Norway, this will not work for you.
