About Nytida Kasper Kollo

At Kasper Summer Camp, children, youth, and young adults with high-functioning autism, Asperger's syndrome, and/or mild intellectual disabilities come to have two fun summer weeks. Here, they get the chance to try new activities and meet friends in a safe environment.

In addition to the summer camp, Kasper also has year-round activities in the form of weekend camps. Our camp locations are in Skåne and Östergötland.

Kasper Summer Camp is part of Nytida, one of Sweden's leading actors in LSS, SoL, and education, focusing on support and services for people with disabilities and psychosocial issues.

About the role

As the kitchen manager, your main responsibility is to provide lunch and dinner for the participants and leaders of the camp period, totaling about 20 people.

You are responsible for inventorying food items and planning the menu. You will plan meals based on the group's food preferences and allergies, and we also require that planning and cooking are based on minimizing food waste and sustainability.

Furthermore, you are responsible for dishwashing and cleaning the kitchen and ensuring that the space meets the requirements set by the Food Agency.

You will work alone in the kitchen, but to ensure that the camp period runs smoothly for everyone involved, a high degree of cooperation is required. All staff always work with our participants' best interests in mind, which concretely means that you have knowledge of current allergies/food preferences, receive suggestions for desired meals, and can offer alternative dishes when needed.

You will have the opportunity to order food items online, which will be delivered to the camp.

Working hours vary and include both day and evening shifts. Each period is about two weeks, and we would like you to work two periods during the summer.

The employment is in the form of a fixed-term contract.

Workplace:

As the kitchen manager at Kasper Summer Camp, you will live with your colleagues at the camp location where you work. The living situation can be described as simple but cozy. You will share a room with 2-3 camp leaders. The workgroup consists of you as the kitchen manager and about 13 camp leaders.

As the kitchen manager, you will be part of a team of camp leaders, led by a supervisor. Together, you all work towards the goal of doing everything possible to ensure our participants have the best summer.

You need to be able to attend the following meetings: Planning meeting: 7/5 (the date may change) Introductory training: 4/6 & 5/6.
