Food and facility management belong to the community development sector and consists of four geographical areas with a total of about 70 employees. We are now looking for a resourceful and innovative cook for our production kitchen at Kaprifolgården in Henån. You will be part of a team of nine people.

Through our work, we ensure that the municipality's special accommodations, schools, and preschools enjoy good and nutritious food. We actively work with digitalization and increasing our share of organic food, which currently stands at 60%. In 2022, Orust municipality was named the leading municipality of the year by Ekomatscentrum, and we also received Orust municipality's quality award for our work in digitizing self-control.

Your tasks

The work as a cook involves handling all kitchen tasks such as cooking, preparation and planning of special diets, baking, vegetable preparation, self-control, receiving goods, dishwashing, and cleaning. The kitchen staff at Kaprifolgården also partially staff the kitchen at a nearby preschool. In case of absence at another unit, the work may require you to be at another workplace. Rotation and a flexible working method are part of the daily work.

We want to spread both joy in food and knowledge about good and sustainable meals, which requires a high level of service.

About you

Education in the restaurant and food program or equivalent that the employer assesses as equivalent is a requirement. You have good knowledge of special diets and food handling, as well as experience in working with self-control. You have a high level of service and a good approach towards customers, colleagues, and other people you meet in your work every day; you see solutions instead of problems and participate with commitment in our continuous development work. You collaborate with others to perform tasks and achieve goals and find it easy to adapt your working method based on changed conditions.
