Description
Our Hotel Alpenhof is located on the outskirts of St. Jakob in the Defereggental Valley at an elevation of about 1,400 meters above sea level—in the heart of one of East Tyrol’s most beautiful high valleys. The Defereggental Valley is known for its unspoiled nature, a ski area with guaranteed snow, and a relaxed, quality-oriented winter and summer tourism experience.
Our 4-star hotel can accommodate up to 240 guests, including extra beds, and combines traditional Tyrolean hospitality with professional, quality-oriented hotel management.
We’re rebuilding our kitchen team for the upcoming season. Together, we want to build a strong new kitchen team.
To strengthen our kitchen team, we are looking for a creative and motivated pastry chef (m/f/d) who, with technical skill, passion, and an eye for aesthetics, will delight our guests with extraordinary dessert creations.
