EQUIPMENT ASSISTANT
Apukka Resort Oy is looking for equipment assistants for the 2026–2027 season.

In addition to maintaining the cleanliness of the dressing area, the job includes actively washing and maintaining the equipment on a daily basis.
During a single day, hundreds of people are outfitted. Often, customers also return the equipment on the same day. At times, the work can be busy, so efficiency and an energetic approach are expected.
