At Ski Peak, we take pride in our exceptional team - mature, friendly, and highly professional individuals who bring a wealth of life experience, a deep passion for the mountains, and strong commercial acumen to everything they do.
Every member of our staff undergoes a rigorous training programme designed to uphold meticulous attention to detail and deliver consistently high standards of customer service. From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel the difference that genuine care and thoughtful hospitality make.
Working hand-in-hand with Ski Peak’s owners, Nigel and Jamie, our team possesses an intimate understanding of the business and what outstanding service truly means. Beyond their individual expertise, they embody a ‘yes, can do’ attitude - always ready to go the extra mile to ensure your holiday is as fun and relaxing as it should be.
Nigel has led Ski Peak since founding it in 1988, and is the visionary behind Maison Rostaing and Chalet Saskia in Vaujany. Before swapping suits for ski boots, he spent time ‘in the City’ and five years in South America with the family business.
A lifelong mountain enthusiast, Nigel is happiest skiing, hiking, or climbing. He also enjoys water-skiing, sailing, cycling, and playing tennis - though he’ll admit the latter is more enthusiasm than skill. He’s hoping to do a lot more of all of it!
Happily married to Annika since 1985 - whom he met skiing in Courchevel during her season - Nigel is a proud father of five and a familiar face around Vaujany, where he continues to enjoy its many delights.
Jamie has been part of Ski Peak since birth and officially joined the helm in 2013. A sociable and energetic force, he’s built strong partnerships and lasting bonds with the Vaujany community. Before joining the family business, he proved his mettle by organising festivals and events, honing his flair for hospitality and connection.
He also runs The Chalet Chef, a thriving venture that brings gourmet dining to the Alps.
Dubbed a “powder-hound extraordinaire” by friends, Jamie is a passionate skier who embraces everything the mountains offer. Off the slopes, he enjoys tennis with his wife Claire (who’s admittedly better) and is loving life’s newest adventure with their son Ralph.
Each season, we welcome three to five dedicated staff who become the friendly face of Ski Peak in resort. They tackle every challenge with a smile and are your go-to for support, questions, and making your stay unforgettable.
Many of our staff return season after season, drawn by their love for Vaujany and eager to share that enthusiasm with our guests. Their dedication and warmth create the kind of atmosphere that turns first-time visitors into lifelong friends.
Frankly, we couldn’t ask for a better crew.
We will always try to work around your schedule. As a small specialist tour operator exclusively providing luxury holidays to Vaujany, we have the flexibility often missing from larger companies.
Be it to organise a quick second break, a weekend get-away for a large group or perhaps a corporate weekend, we can tailor make a break that meets all your requirements.
It couldn't be more convenient; it is quick and easy, plus as a Ski Peak guest you have great discounted prices.
Our ski area - Grande Rousses Mountain Resort (Alpe d'Huez) - is a vast area of fabulous both on and off-piste skiing.
We know that skiing and snowboarding isn't for everyone or perhaps you just want a day off from the mountain. There are plenty of things to keep you occupied for the whole week!
We offer Vaujany chalets which are of the highest standard. All of our chalets ooze character yet feel like home away from home. Our staff will take care of you from the moment they meet you.
