Staff Story:
By Tommy Hicks - 'I’ve been working with Esprit since 2009, I started out as a Snow Ranger in the amazing resort of Alpe D’huez, 13 years later and I head up the childcare operation overseas as the Childcare operations manager. I took the reigns as a resort childcare manager after 2 winters and never looked back. Since becoming an Area manager 5 years ago I knew I wanted to help carry Esprit forward into its next phase and keep the heart of Esprit at the top of the competition for childcare in the alps.'
