Please do not contact Blackcomb Accommodations directly; all applications should go to WPS to be further considered.

Tip for Out-of-Town Applicants: If you are currently living outside the area, be sure to tell us about your plans to relocate including if you’ve already secured or researched local accommodation and your planned arrival date. Click here for some resources.

We will review all applications and contact candidates who have been selected for further consideration or an interview. If you would like an update on your application, please email us at talent@whistler-jobs.com or call us at 604 905 4194 ext 2.
