Description
As a company that prides itself on serving our guests with delicious food, we are looking for enthusiastic and talented chefs to join our team, who are flexible and reliable in their approach to work.
At Ski Cuisine we are happy to give our chefs the freedom to plan their own menus, so you will be completely responsible for all menu planning, budget control, shopping and food preparation. Therefore you will need to be confident in all those areas and enjoy the challenge of running your own kitchen.
A ski season is a fantastic way to spend the winter and although the hours can be demanding, your reward is plenty of time on the mountainside. It is also an excellent way to further your catering career and to experience running your own kitchen. To get the most out of working a ski season you'll need to be energetic, friendly and love working within a team environment. You can generally expect to work a long morning, followed by the afternoon off, before returning to your chalet to prepare and serve dinner.
The role of the chef is to organise the smooth running of your chalet kitchen and to serve superior quality meals with emphasis on fresh produce and excellent presentation. We expect all our chefs to have a flair for their chosen career and be passionate about cooking. You will work alongside a chalet host who is mainly responsible for housekeeping and hosting duties. However, your roles will overlap and we would expect you to work as a team so that you run your chalet to the very best of your ability and ensure that your guests are comfortable and enjoying the high standard of cuisine and personal service for which Ski Cuisine is renowned.
