We are looking to recruit Chalet Hosts (applications from singles, couples and 2 friends accepted) for our catered chalets in Morzine.

It is ESSENTIAL that you have previous professional cooking experience, whether it is professional experience in a restaurant or hotel kitchen or having been a Chalet Host previously (where cooking rather than assisting a chef was required). The role requires someone who gets on well with people from all walks of life, can cook to a high standard, is well organised, takes pride in doing the job properly with great attention to detail, has a lot of energy and can work as part of a team.

You will be required to independently provide breakfast with a daily cooked option, a cake for afternoon tea, hot and cold canapes and a 3-course evening meal, as well as cleaning the chalet daily and changing over the chalet on the day of departure/arrival of the guests. In addition, there will be some weeks when we have guests staying for a short break and the chalet needs to be changed over mid-week.
