Your primary role will focus on our hotel's high-quality Meetings & Events catering, where you will create culinary experiences for both small meeting groups and large banquets.

An adaptable team player: You can smoothly transition between different kitchen operations and adapt quickly to changing situations – whether it's a large banquet or a busy Saturday night at Toscanini.
A guardian of quality: You approach cooking with passion and pride. You want to ensure that every plate is top-notch, both visually and in taste.
Qualifications: You have a culinary degree and/or strong work experience in similar roles, along with a valid hygiene passport.
What we offer:
A permanent position in one of Helsinki's most iconic hotels.
A highly versatile role where you can develop your skills in both M&E and the restaurant side.
A fantastic, professional, and humorous work community.
Comprehensive Strawberry chain staff benefits.
