Head Chef

Lead the vibe. Shape the flavor. Own the Riviera kitchen.

Hotel Riviera is more than a place to stay – it’s a vibrant hotel with attitude
, located on the waterfront in Moss, just 40 minutes from Oslo. Here, beach energy meets international inspiration, bold design and a lively atmosphere all year round. The Riviera feeling runs through everything we do – from music and interiors to food and unforgettable moments.

We are now looking for a creative and high-energy Head Chef to lead the kitchen at Brasserie Bon Vivant and further shape Riviera’s culinary identity with international flair and confident use of local Nordic ingredients.

You’re not just cooking food – you’re creating experiences.
You live for flavour, aesthetics, atmosphere and quality
, and you thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where every meal should feel like a mini getaway.

• A strong creative vision, blending international influences with local, seasonal produce
• The ability to lead, inspire and build strong kitchen teams
• Commercial mindset, solid cost control and a focus on sustainable operations
• Create and develop vibrant, international menus rooted in Nordic and local ingredients
• Lead and motivate the kitchen team in a high-energy resort environment
• Deliver food experiences that match the Riviera vibe – from breakfast to after-beach and events
• Collaborate closely with bar, events and other departments to create seamless guest experiences
• Take ownership of kitchen economics, purchasing, inventory and operational efficiency

Hotel Riviera puts guests in vacay mode – all year round
, and our kitchen plays a key role in delivering that feeling.

• A key leadership role with real creative freedom and influence
• The chance to shape a modern, international food concept in a vibrant resort setting
• A professional, energetic and ambitious work environment
• Competitive conditions and long-term development opportunities
