Vacant job

We at FAVO Östermalm are now looking for an engaged and driven head chef who, together with our restaurant manager, wants to continue delivering modern street food made from scratch to people who love really good food.

FAVO is a modern street food kitchen where the food is created to be delivered, without compromising on quality or feel. Currently, we have two units, one in Stockholm and one in Borås, but if all goes well, we hope to have three by the beginning of next year. We are growing, and we would like you, who are applying for the role, to grow with us.

About the role: As a head chef at FAVO, you are a natural part of both the operation and the leadership in the kitchen. You distribute the work during the intense lunch shifts to keep the pace up and ensure that everyone has clear tasks even during quieter times. You easily prioritize when things heat up and have full control over the production flow, from planning prep for upcoming days to adjusting according to sales and order volume.

You are responsible for maintaining high standards in the kitchen, from hygiene to waste management. This includes:

• planning and rotation of ingredients

• temperature controls, labeling, and cleanliness according to routines

• ongoing checks of cleaning and date labeling

• ensuring that HACCP and hygiene regulations are always followed

As a pillar in the kitchen team, you ensure that each shift is well-structured, both at the start and at the end, and that everything is ready for the next service.

Together with the restaurant manager, you introduce new employees, ensure that routines are followed, and motivate the team. We are a close-knit group, so personality and teamwork are highly valued.

You keep yourself updated on menu changes and campaigns, and if you wish, there is also the opportunity to be involved in menu development once you are settled in. Communication with the restaurant manager regarding routines, staff, and flow is important, and we appreciate if you like to come up with your own improvement suggestions!

We are currently undergoing a restructuring, so there are great opportunities to develop the role in the long term.

We are looking for someone who:

• speaks fluent Swedish and English (Swedish sign language is a plus! We have colleagues who use STS).

• has experience in a similar role, but it is not a requirement. 

• is driven, responsible, and has the desire to learn.

Practical:

• Full-time position, varying hours (day, evening, weekend)

• Permanent employment with a 6-month probation period

• Start date according to agreement, but we will review applications continuously. 

• Location: FAVO Östermalm, Stockholm

Contact & application If you have any questions, please contact Hilma, operations coordinator, at [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]). Please note that we do not accept applications via email,  you apply through our website.

We look forward to getting to know you and welcoming you to the FAVO family!
