What we offer

With us, you’re not just a number. Family comes first—whether your child is sick, it’s your mom’s birthday, or you have something special planned: We’ll find a solution.

Want to grow professionally? We’d love that. Maybe you’re coming from a completely different field and want to get started in the restaurant industry? Or do you already have a specific training program in mind? Then let’s talk about how we can support your growth here at Waldpark.

And yes: Things can get pretty hectic here. But if you take a moment to look out into the forest, take a deep breath, and take in nature, the stress often melts away faster than you can say “fries.”

Here’s what else you can expect:

  • probably the most beautiful workplace far and wide
  • day shifts only—no evening shifts
  • Year-round position
  • 5-day workweek
  • Some on-site housing available
  • High-quality à la carte meals for employees
  • Unlimited coffee and beverages included
  • Individual training and development opportunities

The Teichalm is beautiful, but it’s not right in the middle of town. A driver’s license and your own transportation are therefore advantageous.
