Our Culture

Here, the Sous Chef doesn't just handle paperwork — they handle the spoon too: you're at the stove yourself when it counts, and you're the team's first point of contact whenever the Head Chef isn't on site.

What to look forward to

A role with real responsibility and direct influence on quality and operations — from daily service to the next banquet. After your shift, head straight to the slopes or grab your snowboard before the next service begins.
