I am looking for a passionate and inspirational Head Chef to lead my clients kitchen team with creativity, empathy, and excellence.

• Create and execute seasonal menus combining French techniques with fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
• Ensure every dish reflects both creativity and precision, leaving a lasting impression on our guests.
• Manage daily operations of the hotel kitchen — from food preparation to cost control and hygiene standards.
• Collaborate closely with the management and service teams to provide a seamless guest experience.
• Support team development through coaching, feedback, and leading by example.
• Adjust quickly to changing guest demands and operational needs with a calm, solution-driven approach.

Your Profile

• Proven experience as Head Chef or Senior Sous Chef in a hotel.
• Strong leadership and communication skills — someone your team and guests naturally trust and admire.
• Deep understanding of hotel kitchen structures and cross-department collaboration.
• Mastery of French or French-fusion cuisine, with an eye for innovation and presentation.
• Fluent in English; German language skills are a plus.
• Organized, adaptable, and passionate about creating exceptional dining experiences.

On Offer

• A creative and supportive environment where your leadership truly matters.
• Competitive remuneration, meals on duty, and potential accommodation.
• The opportunity to spearhead an elegant French-fusion concept in a beautiful Austrian setting.
• A culture that values authenticity, respect, and the joy of serving guests outstanding food.
