About the job

Are you a culinary craftsman with pride in your craft?

We are seeking a professionally strong chef or caterer who loves good ingredients, food made from scratch, and the cold kitchen. You should want to create delicious, high-quality food and be curious about how we can develop our work with ecology and sustainability.

With us, the job is about cooking; your primary task is to prepare inviting and flavorful high-quality food together with your skilled colleagues and our trainee for meeting catering.

The meeting catering at Herlev Hospital is an engaged team of 14 employees who every day work to create good experiences through food, service and quality.

We provide catering for everything from small meetings to large conferences and events with up to 300 participants. Regardless of whether the task is big or small, our ambition is the same: To deliver professional service and high-quality food that guests remember.

We set the bar high and have a strong focus on good craftsmanship, good ingredients and welcoming service. For us, quality is not something we talk about. It is something we work on every single day.

As part of the department we also run a small café, and we work closely across functions. In addition, we have a strong collaboration with the hospital canteen. When we have particularly large events or busy periods, the canteen helps us lift the tasks, and in return we help in the canteen when there is a need for extra hands in operations. It creates a everyday life with community, flexibility and a strong togetherness across the kitchens.

We are looking for you who

  • Love your craft and take professional pride to work every day.
  • Have a special interest in the cold kitchen.
  • Thrive in working with high-quality ingredients and cooking from scratch.
  • Have an interest in organic ingredients, responsibly caught fish, nature cattle and sustainable meals.
  • Can work in a structured way and maintain an overview when the pace is high.
  • Are a team player who contributes positively to the community.

We offer

  • A workplace with high professional ambitions.
  • Great influence on daily production and development.
  • Skilled colleagues who are passionate about food and quality.
  • A kitchen where we cook from scratch and preserve the good craft.
  • Break-time gymnastics, sports club, bicycle workshop and massage scheme.
