At Scandic Star Lund, in the heart of Skåne, we’ve created our own piazza inspired by Skåne’s traditional market squares. We are one of southern Sweden’s premier meeting venues, with conference facilities for over 400 people in our own theater and space for 450 dinner guests in our banquet hall.

The staff at the hotel is a wonderful group with a strong sense of community. We look out for one another, pitch in where needed, and view professional development as a natural part of our work. For us, a positive atmosphere among our staff is essential to providing our guests with a world-class hotel experience.

We are now seeking a Sous Chef for Scandic Star Lund.

At Scandic, everyone works together to create a world-class guest experience throughout the guest’s entire stay. As Sous Chef, you’ll work alongside the Executive Chef to motivate, lead, develop, and engage everyone on the team to take significant personal responsibility for improving our work processes and service as the world around us changes. We’re convinced that it’s when you have the opportunity to grow and contribute all your expertise that we exceed our guests’ expectations—and we also have a lot of fun at work!

So bring your experience, your passion, and your way of thinking to us—and help build a culture where we truly care: about each other, our guests, and our planet. Welcome to Scandic!

What does the role of Sous Chef entail?

In this role as Sous Chef, you’ll share responsibility with the Executive Chef for managing and participating in day-to-day operations to ensure a world-class guest experience through our food service across all outlets. This means that, together with the kitchen team, you’ll ensure a high level of service and a menu that meets guests’ needs. In this role, you’re expected to assist the Executive Chef with certain administrative tasks and cover for them during their absence.

Who are you?

You embrace change and have the ability to guide others through it; you’re flexible, quick to identify solutions, and skilled at building relationships. You possess an inspirational leadership style; you’ll be available at various times and on different days, and you’ll maintain a holistic perspective in everything you do alongside the Executive Chef. You recognize the value of collaboration, provide regular feedback, and maintain a communicative leadership style. You plan your time effectively for the tasks at hand and upcoming events, and you work purposefully toward both short- and long-term goals. As our Sous Chef, you are also courageous, humble, and embody Scandic’s values.

You have relevant training and several years of prior experience in the kitchen; perhaps you’ve worked as a chef and feel ready to take the next step in your career, or maybe you already have several years of experience as a Sous Chef. Experience leading others in a similar role is a plus. You have strong administrative skills and experience with financial planning.
