Vacant job

Chef to newly opened Margretes Badhotell, Strandbaden

About the Employer

In July, we open the doors to Margretes Badhotell – a historic seaside hotel dating back to the late 1800s, beautifully located by the sea in Strandbaden on the Kula Peninsula. We are breathing new life into a classic environment, creating a seaside restaurant where guests are met with good food, personal service, and a warm atmosphere – equally suitable for a relaxing everyday escape as for festive occasions. We cook from scratch with care for ingredients, quality, and feeling, serving everything from breakfast and à la carte to meal packages and arrangements for our hotel guests and visitors.

Margretes Badhotell is part of Blue Tuna Group, a growing restaurant group in northwestern Scania. We are now building the team ahead of the opening, and you will have the chance to be involved from the very beginning – in a small, tight-knit team in the middle of one of Scania's finest coastal environments.
