Lapland Staff is looking for Snowmobile Sleigh drivers for Lapland Safaris Saariselkä, for the Christmas season 2026.  

The main task of a Snowmobile Sleigh driver is to act as a driver pulling a sleigh full of guests with a snowmobile. Sleigh drivers work outside in Christmas-themed activity areas, spreading joy and transporting international Christmas groups, mainly consisting of families.

The working environment is international, so we expect you to speak English fluently. Other language skills, especially Spanish, are considered an advantage in this position, as well as experience with motorized vehicles and work in the tourism industry. The job requires a class B driver's license.  In addition, please note that in order to work in Finland, EU-citizenship/passport or valid working permit to Finland is required. Please read more under the job advertisement.
