Join the team behind Mountain Holidays — managing properties across Togari and Nozawa Onsen, set in a quiet ski village 15 minutes from Nozawa's slopes. We're a small, close-knit operation where every person on the team genuinely matters. If you want real responsibility, a village that still feels authentically Japanese, and a season worth remembering, you're in the right place.

Why work for us?

  • Subsidised staff accommodation available for key roles
  • A small, high-trust team
  • Real variety: ski-in/ski-out lodges, a working café, and properties across two villages
  • Togari Onsen's quiet charm, 15 minutes from Nozawa's slopes and nightlife

    Plese note: A valid working visa for Japan is required for all applicants.
