We're hiring several experienced a la carte chefs for season and permanent positions across Norway. Work starts as soon as possible, with current openings in various destinations across Norway — most of them outside the larger cities, surrounded by fjords, mountains, and coast.

Many of these positions start as a season but easily convert to long-term, permanent contracts for the right person — one of the most stable routes into long-term work in Norwegian hospitality.

About the role

You'll cook in a high-skilled international team, serving local Nordic food made from the best seasonal ingredients with a touch of European technique. The kitchens we recruit for value craft, presentation, and consistency — the standard that brings guests back.

What you'll do

Prepare a la carte dishes to a high standard, from scratch

Plate and present at fine dining or high a la carte level

Work closely with international colleagues across the kitchen brigade

Maintain consistent quality through busy services

Requirements

What we're looking for

Minimum 2 years of experience in higher-level a la carte restaurants

Confidence preparing well-presented, good-quality dishes independently

Knowledge of French, American, or fine dining cuisines — Nordic or Norwegian cuisine experience is a strong asset

Strong English (the team is international and English is the daily working language)

EU/EEA citizenship or a valid right to work in Norway

Available to start immediately or near-immediately

Open to relocating to often-rural Norwegian destinations

What we offer

Gross salary starting from 43,000 NOK/month, with more depending on experience

Accommodation provided for a small fee at most locations

Direct employment with the hotel or restaurant

Season position with strong potential to convert to permanent

The chance to work in some of Norway's most beautiful destinations
