Vacant job

Värmdö is the meeting place of the archipelago, offering a unique combination of nature's quiet beauty and a more urban lifestyle. Our mission is not just one but many: schools, properties, social services, harbors, healthcare, libraries, elder care, and many more. We work to ensure that all residents of Värmdö can live a rich and free life. We want to be the ones who make the dream of a vibrant, secure environment for home, family, and business possible.

To succeed fully, we need diverse competencies and must work together to build a common and trust-based work culture, built on brave, responsible employees who understand the needs and wishes of the citizens.

Our Operations

Restaurang Trallen is located in Gustavsgården, a senior living facility centrally located in Gustavsberg on Värmdö. We serve breakfast, lunch, afternoon coffee, and dinner to our 101 residents daily. A large part of what we cook is made from scratch. Our restaurant is also open to the general public. We occasionally offer catering and host larger events. We are open every day of the year.

Gustavsgården is a residence for the elderly with a high care need. The facility consists of three units with a total of 101 apartments. Each resident has a contact person within the staff team who can assist them in various aspects. The core values of our operations are: competence, flexibility, security, and clarity.

Gustavsgården is centrally located in Gustavsberg, easily reachable by bus from Slussen in about 30 minutes.

It is important that you master the Swedish language in both speech and writing, as you will work in an open kitchen and meet our residents and staff daily. The kitchen staff at Gustavsgården is a tight-knit team with a relaxed atmosphere, where laughter and joy are a natural part of the workday, and where everyone helps each other and values good collaboration.

You have good knowledge of allergens, special diets, HACCP, self-control, and food hygiene/handling. You are, of course, good at cooking and have a genuine interest in food preparation.
