Apprenticeship as a Restaurant Specialist (m/f/d)

all year round

Österreich, Tirol

Description

Learn about hospitality. Bring your personality to the role.

We’re looking for you to start immediately or at a time to be arranged.

 

Do you enjoy being around people, love interacting with guests, and want to learn what makes for truly great service?

At VALARA, you’ll learn step by step how professional and warm hospitality works. From breakfast through daily operations to evening service, you’ll be part of our team and learn everything about service, food, beverages, and wine.

We’ll guide you from the very beginning, share our knowledge with you, and support you as you take on more and more responsibilities on your own.

 

What to expect:

  • A 3-year apprenticeship with block instruction
  • You’ll get to know all the key areas of our restaurant and hotel bar.
  • We’ll teach you professional food and beverage service from the ground up.
  • You’ll learn everything you need to know about food, beverages, and wine.
  • You’ll learn how to properly advise and personally attend to guests.
  • You’ll be an active member of our service team right from the start.
  • Experienced colleagues will guide you and share their knowledge with you.
  • We’ll cover your boarding costs during your apprenticeship.

 

Your benefits:

  • Fair training stipend and vacation entitlement in accordance with the collective bargaining agreement and the guidelines of the Chamber of Commerce
  • Free room and board (even on days off)
  • Breakfast like a guest once a week—even as an apprentice
  • A family-like environment & genuine appreciation
  • Support for continuing education
  •  + €200 extra per month on top of the apprenticeship stipend
  •  Help with financing a driver’s license upon successful completion of your apprenticeship 

 

Just give it a try.

Not sure yet if restaurant service is the right fit for you? Then come by for a trial shift. Get to know our team, experience the service, and find out if you’d feel at home with us.

Maybe you’ll be part of our VALARA team before you know it.

 

We look forward to receiving your application addressed to the Krajnc family at hotel@valara.at, including your resume, photo, and transcripts.
