Workplace Description

Fågelsjö Gammelgård Bortom Åa is one of the seven Hälsingegårdar that was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List on July 1, 2012. Bortom Åa is a well-preserved cultural environment with roots from Finnish immigration in the 17th century. In 1910, a new house was built on the farmyard, and the old main building from 1818 was left standing in its original condition. The farm is currently owned by Ljusdal Municipality but is managed by Fågelsjö Hembygdsförening.

The new house from 1910 is now a café that welcomes around 15,000 guests during the summer months.

The farm offers guided tours, a craft shop with local handicrafts, a café, exhibitions, canoe and bicycle rentals, a baking kitchen, conference facilities, hiking trails, and much more!

Job Description

As a café/kitchen assistant, you are an important part of our team at the farm. You are responsible for service in the café, which serves both coffee and light lunches. You are the face of the business. Your duties include welcoming guests, handling the cash register, baking pastries and cakes, cooking, maintaining order in public and staff areas, assisting with events, and driving deliveries to the inland railway.

As a café assistant, you will be provided accommodation during your work period, sharing common areas such as kitchen and bathroom with the farm's guides.

Qualifications

No prior experience in café/kitchen jobs is required, although a background in restaurants or bakeries is advantageous. An interest in food craftsmanship and nature is desirable.

You must be comfortable speaking both Swedish and English. If you speak more languages, that is a merit!

We require that you have a driver's license as driving is part of the job.

Employment Dates and Application

Café staff are hired between June 1 and August 31 and work for a period of 2 months or the entire season. You should be willing to work at least 2 months during the season.

We are currently looking for 2-3 full-time/part-time staff for the summer.

We hire on a rolling basis as applications come in, so the ad may be removed before the final application date.
