Vacant job

Are you a chef ready for the next step – without leaving the kitchen?

We are now looking for a chef to join our team in Gällivare – a role where you can combine your craft in one of Sweden's most unique working environments. Here, you work close to the food, the team, and the guests – while driving and developing the kitchen forward together with us.

Our assignment at LKAB in Gällivare involves preparing and serving food, as well as catering and delivery to the restaurant located in the mine. We are a team of eight people in the restaurant who collaborate with great commitment to provide the best possible service.

Why this role?

Here you are right in the middle of the operation, with the opportunity to cook and set the standard in daily life, while being close to the northern Swedish nature. An inspiring and unique opportunity to focus on your professional development while also taking time in the forest and outdoors outside of working hours.

We know that Gällivare is not "around the corner" for everyone. Therefore, we are flexible and find a setup that works for you – whether it involves living on-site, weekly commuting, or a more long-term relocation. What is most important to us is that you have the drive and willingness to take on the assignment.

Your daily life and responsibilities in the role

• Work actively in the kitchen and serve as a role model in cooking
• Ensure quality from raw ingredients to the finished dish
• Maintain contact with guests and customers and be a visible part of the operation
• Work with menu planning, purchasing, and kitchen economics

What you bring to the table:

• Trained chef with kitchen experience
• Enjoy working close to both food and people
• Driven, solution-oriented, and responsible
• Want to develop yourself, your team, and the business
• It is an advantage if you have taken or are ready to take the step into a leadership role

What we offer:

• Flexible solutions regarding housing and work methods (e.g., commuting or living on-site)
• An opportunity to take the next step in your career within Sodexo
• A secure and inclusive workplace
• Development, education, and career opportunities
• Benefits focused on health, safety, and balance
• Opportunity for volunteer work during working hours
