The Workplace

The Food Services of Ludvika Municipality has ambitious goals where cooking from scratch is a top priority. The possibilities are endless, from the schools' work with large-scale kitchen operations, nutrition education, and special diets in focus to the more restaurant-like kitchens within elderly care where the fine balance of nutrition and restaurant-like quality of the dishes must meet.

Are you a chef who is passionate about cooking and service? Do you want to help promote a healthy lifestyle with good eating habits for the municipality's primary school students, children, and the elderly? Welcome to us! We are looking for a temporary mobile chef. Our mobile chefs are those who are booked when there is a need for staff at our various units. You will receive a base placement in one of our kitchens, where you will work unless there is a need at another unit. We are looking for someone who has good collaboration skills and can work independently. You should be responsible, meticulous, and accustomed to rapid changes. It is a challenge to change workplaces and be the one who steps in when someone regular is absent. The food unit has three unit managers with a geographically divided food area each. All three areas have kitchens for primary schools, preschools, and elderly care. One operations manager and one food developer.

Qualifications

You need to have a chef's education and/or long experience working in a professional kitchen. Good computer skills and knowledge of self-control and special diets are required.

Good knowledge of the Swedish language, both spoken and written, is required. A driver's license and access to a car are necessary as you need to be able to travel to all workplaces.

What you get from us!

In addition to working with exciting issues in a varied everyday life, you will have the opportunity to become part of an organization that maintains important community functions for residents in Ludvika Municipality.
