Is this a full-time role, and what type of contract does Hotelis SA offer?

This listing is a full-time position.

Do I need a cross-border work permit for a role in Valais?

EU/EFTA citizens living in an EU/EFTA state can apply for a G permit and can work anywhere in Switzerland: border zones no longer apply to them, and they must return home at least once a week. The Swiss employer files the request with Canton Valais's migration office after the contract is signed. Processing times vary by canton, so confirm the specifics with Valais's cantonal migration office or with HR during the application.
