While I was living in the Savoie, I noticed a significant increase in the numbers of Russian snow sports tourists, particularly at the high end of the market. By way of example, there's a purpose-built luxury village at Les Arcs, where the 5* accommodation often had as many Russians as other nationalities. Miniature dogs wandering around, clad in real fur coats and booties, matching their owners' ski wear... that sort of thing. So anyone with experience in the tourism business and who has fluent French, English and Russian would stand a good chance of finding employment with the likes of
Radisson, I would have thought.
On the other hand, I've been away from Les Arcs for three years, since just before the financial crisis took hold, so I don't know how this affected Russian tourism in France (although the luxury end of the market probably didn't suffer too much).
