ABOUT THE POSITION
The Hairy Pig Restaurant is seeking a chef who wants to begin, develop, or deepen their knowledge in restaurant cooking.

The work includes, among other things:

Being able to work efficiently and independently even at a fast pace and during service.
We are looking for someone with a genuine interest in cooking and who wants to develop in a kitchen where ingredients, craftsmanship, and quality are at the center.
You need to be thorough, responsible, and able to take your own initiative. It is important that you are not afraid to work independently and that you understand the importance of following recipes, routines, and the restaurant's standards.
Previous experience from a restaurant kitchen is a merit, but we also welcome you who are at the beginning of your career and have the right attitude, work ethic, and desire to learn.
At The Hairy Pig, you will work with Swedish ingredients, game from the Swedish forest, and solid traditional Swedish and Nordic dishes – in a kitchen where you have the opportunity to take responsibility and develop as a chef.
