Ærø Hotel is looking for an experienced, skilled and reliable Chef to join our international kitchen team.
We are located on the beautiful Danish island of Ærø, in the maritime town of Marstal. We are looking for an experienced chef who enjoys working in a structured professional kitchen, preparing good-quality food for a large number of hotel guests.
We have 1 position available.
About the position
You will become part of our evening kitchen team, which consists of five chefs working closely together.
Ærø Hotel does not operate an à la carte restaurant.
Our kitchen is based on planned production and pre-arranged menus for our hotel guests. We serve between approximately 100 and 200 guests every day.

This means that our kitchen operation is highly structured, allowing the team to focus on good preparation, consistency, quality and efficient service.

The primary working language in our kitchen is Spanish, while English is the common language throughout the rest of the hotel.
