Vacant job

Rederi AB Göta's three classic canal boats sail on one of the world's most beautiful and breathtaking waterways - the Göta Canal, which connects Stockholm with Gothenburg through over 60 locks. We offer exclusive cruises with full board and guided excursions.

We are looking for genuine, engaged, and reliable employees who want to contribute to the enchanting atmosphere on board and create memories for our guests for a lifetime.

As these are old boats, the ceiling height is limited to 185 cm in several places on board.

We are looking for someone who:

• Sees the advantage of working intensively for a period and then having time off.
• Has at least 3 years of experience working as a chef.
• Is self-sufficient and used to planning their own work.
• Has good experience in inventory, planning, and purchasing raw materials.
• Provides excellent service that meets and exceeds guests' expectations.
• Is a social team player with a positive attitude.
• Feels confident in their work role and professional competence.
• Is stress-resistant, flexible, and a problem solver.
• Is used to long working days.
• Has good experience with special diets and knowledge to deliver equally first-class food to our guests with these needs.

Working at sea entails great responsibility as you will be part of the safety organization on board. Therefore, it is important that you have good knowledge of Swedish, which is the safety language on board, as well as English, since most of our guests visit us from abroad. German and other language skills are highly meritorious.

As a chef, you, along with the cold kitchen, are responsible for all guest and crew meals, which means that in addition to preparing and serving a 2-course lunch and a 3-course dinner to our guests every day, you will also prepare 2 meals for the crew each day.

Your duties also include responsibility for inventory, ordering, cleaning, and dishwashing.

The logistics in the galley differ significantly from a classic restaurant kitchen. We focus on classic Nordic flavors with modern twists, and it is you who, with pride, love, and care, conveys these through the plate.

We therefore see that you:

• Have documented professional experience from banquet, a la carte, or similar (at least 3 years).
• Are a creative cook with a genuine interest in preparing beautiful and delicious food.
• Are familiar with inventory and ordering/purchasing.
• Have good knowledge of raw materials and knowledge of safe food handling (HACCP).

We offer:

• Seasonal employment from May/June to Aug/Sept 2026
• 1:1 rotation work/time off
• Tariff salary according to the Archipelago Agreement Seko
