Description

 

Are you a dynamic chef or part of a chef couple who loves cooking but would also love to ski (or learn to ski)?  Then we're looking for you!

We're looking for a chef (or chef couple) who will love to run his/her own kitchen cooking for our guests in our superior chalet Les Clochettes in the picturesque resort of Megève, France. You need to have great presentation skills, the ability to cook well and a genuine passion for food. It is a balance between providing great food and yet making sure that you get out and ski, which is what you're there for.  We will help you to get that balance right.  If you are part of a couple then the other half will take on the role of chalet host, looking after our guests, answering queries, housekeeping, waiting at table and generally being friendly and helpful to ensure our guests have the best holiday possible.  We take pride in how well we take care of our staff and many of our staff remain our very good friends. Please call or drop us an email to find out more.

NB. You must have an EU passport to apply i.e. issued in France, Ireland, Spain, Poland, Hungary etc.  At the moment we can't employ those holding only a UK passport.  Hopefully that will change but at the moment you need to have an EU passport.

The Job

  • Cooking breakfast, cake for afternoon tea, canapes and a 4-course evening meal for up to 15 guests (although normally 10) in your Chalet 6 days a week
  • Host will be responsible for housekeeping, waiting, helping with queries, sorting out lift passes etc. Ensuring our guests have a wonderful holiday!
  • Taking responsibility for food hygiene standards and processes in your kitchen;

The Setup

  • Two chalet-hotels in Megève: the Rond Point and the Sylvana plus our superior chalet Les Clochettes and some self-catered apartments;
  • Five members of staff in each: Manager, Chef, Assistant and two Hosts; plus a chef and a host in Les Clochettes

  • Ski lessons for those who haven’t skied before or who want to improve
  • One full day off every week & two half days off most weeks, plus excellent ski time (usually 5-6 hours/day, 5 days a week unlike other companies)

We ensure that your hard work is rewarded with what you’re here to enjoy: skiing. Megève is a great resort with a large ski area and fantastic off-piste. We like to ensure that our staff are happy, partly because happy staff makes happy guests but also because we are out in Megève for most of the season and we like to work with people who are enjoying themselves.  A lot of our staff have remained our very good friends.
