From-scratch cooking with quality and care

Nutrition Assistant for Food & Meals at Øresundshjemmet in Humlebæk

Imagine a workday where the smell of homemade food drifts through the house, where residents look forward to today’s meal, and where your contribution helps create both joy, security and quality of life.

That is everyday life at Øresundshjemmet.

We are looking for a new colleague who loves good food, takes pride in their professional work and is passionate about making a difference through meals. A colleague who knows that a good meal is much more than nourishment. It is presence, recognition, memories and good experiences.

Who are we?

At Øresundshjemmet we prepare hot meals from scratch for our residents every day. We work with good ingredients, high quality and a lot of care in what we do.

We are a kitchen where we help each other, laugh together and lift as a team. There is room for both professional ambitions and a good mood, and we believe that the best results are created when people thrive.
