Santa's Lapland

Why not try something new and exciting this winter by joining the team and having a magical experience with the REAL Santa in his native Finnish Lapland?

Being part of our Santa's Lapland team is all about having a passion and love for Christmas. It will involve you working in Finnish Lapland in the Arctic Circle where our guests come to visit the Real Santa Claus in his native home. This will require you to adhere to the Santa story at all times and ensuring each families visit to Lapland is a special and magical one and so a love of Christmas is an absolute must! If you have a happy and friendly disposition and the ability to work in a very fast paced environment with a constant smile, all while making sure our guests receive the complete Lapland experience then working in Lapland could be for you.

Chris Lovelock, Talent Acquisition Manager

Having worked in the travel industry for 11 years, I have worked several winter seasons in Austria and Lapland followed by two summers in the UK Recruitment Department. Now based full time in the UK, I have the pleasure of heading to Lapland for the Christmas period working with the Lapland Team to provide the most intense and exciting program we have. Who wouldn't want to spend Christmas with the REAL Santa Claus in his native country? 'Who am I?' – I am not a morning person, I need 4 alarm clocks to get me up! I have to have a big cup of tea first thing. I have perfected my snowboarding during my time overseas and Selva val Gardena in the Italian Dolomites, which is where I would choose for my winter holiday.

FAQs

The season for Santa's Lapland depends on the position you are contracted to do, with management staff being overseas for approximately 7 weeks and the general team being overseas for about 5 weeks.
As you would expect conditions are quite extreme. Temperatures can fall as low as -40 degrees centigrade at night and not get above -15 degrees centigrade even during the day. It is also very dark, with only a little twilight in the middle of the day.
You will be provided with arctic suits and footwear to allow you to complete your roles and to ensure you are properly protected when you are out and about even outside of work hours. You will need to provide your own warm and suitable winter clothing such as thermal base layers and advice on this will be sent separately.
