Head Waiter (m/f/d)

Winter season

Österreich, Salzburg

Hotel Zehnerkar is a premium employer on HOGASTJOB and therefore very popular among applicants.

Description

We are looking for a dedicated Chef de Rang to provide service to our long-time regular guests for the winter season, starting around November 22, 2025.

 

 

We’d like to briefly introduce ourselves:

About Us:  We are a 51-room, 4-star hotel with a restaurant open all day (hot meals served from 12:00 PM to 9:30 PM). We treat our guests to half-board and a ski snack between 3:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. Half-board includes a generous breakfast buffet from 7:30 AM to 10:00 AM (also available à la carte); dinner consists of a 4-course menu with a choice of main courses, plus a daily salad bar and cheese bar. Once a week, we serve a farmhouse buffet or a specialty buffet (always on Saturday, which is our main arrival day); in addition, once a week we offer a sparkling wine breakfast, a dessert buffet, a strudel buffet, and more. 

 

Our philosophy: “Nothing is impossible!” or “All right—top-notch!” We work together as a team, support one another, and especially during peak times, we stick together. We have many loyal regular guests, many of whom have been coming to us for years and even decades! We’re very proud of this and want to build on our success. At our core, we’re a family-run business with 26 employees. The hotel was built by our grandparents and is now in its third generation of family ownership. Personalized service is our top priority—we’re all about avoiding the mass-production approach!

We look forward to receiving your application!
