FLAGSHIP CHALET CHEF – Morzine, Meribel
We’re looking for talented and enthusiastic chefs to join our team; typically candidates for this role
will have a background of working in Michelin star restaurants, luxury yachts and exclusive private
residences; if this sounds like you then we’d love to hear from you!

restaurant, with a couple of more relaxed-style evenings to create a balance throughout the
week. You will have the opportunity to train in our signature dishes, including Kaiseki – our
Japanese fine dining experience – as well as using your creativity to refine your own style and
menus to go above and beyond and really create that ‘wow’ factor for our guests.
