Vacant job

We are now looking for a chef for Scandic Umeå Syd.

Regardless of why guests visit us, few things are as appreciated as a friendly face welcoming them. As a chef, you act as a host alongside the rest of the hotel team, creating a world-class guest experience.

Here, you will take significant responsibility for making the decisions required to ensure guest satisfaction. The team continuously develops and improves its methods and service in line with changes in the external environment. We are convinced that it is when you are given the opportunity to develop and contribute with all your skills and experience that we exceed guest expectations. Plus, we have fun at work!

So bring your experience, your commitment, and your way of thinking to us – and contribute to a culture where we truly care: about each other, our guests, and our planet. Welcome to Scandic!

What does the role of chef entail?

Here you have a very important role in the hotel by ensuring a world-class guest experience regarding our food and beverage environments. Your main tasks are to plan, prepare, and cook food, as well as present it in an appealing way. You also support and assist the team in other parts of the hotel as needed.

Who are you?

To fit the role, you need to have a burning interest in food and be attentive to details and guests' individual needs. You appreciate order and tidiness, both in your own work and that of your colleagues. All of this to provide our guests with a fantastic dining experience. For this position, we require that you have completed a chef's training or acquired equivalent competence in another way. Personal qualities and attitude are most important for this recruitment. To fit the role, you need to be a good team player who takes significant responsibility for your tasks and the overall result. It is also important that you can convey good hospitality to the hotel's guests.
