Description du poste

We are looking for a kitchen hero, a pantry lion, a knight in shining apron to be the strongman or strongwoman behind the scenes at citizenM’s hotels. The official title is ‘food ambassador’ – but this role means so much more than its title.

The food ambassador’s purpose is to create a ‘wow!’ experience for everyone at the front-of-house – that is all hotel guests and citizenM staff. We don’t have a full-service restaurant and our menu is small – so it’s extra important that everything we serve is perfectly prepared, well presented and tasty. You will be the essential hero to make that happen – and you’ll take care of everything from placing orders to keeping the kitchen clean. Can you bring your enthusiasm and energy to our amazing hotel teams?

What's in it for you?

• Competitive salaries (2050€ gross per month on a full time basis / 35 hours contract)
• Monthly performance rewards - bonus up to 10% of your salary
• Free citizenM experience nights for you all around the world
• Discounted rate on rooms and F&B for you, your friends and family
• 50% of transport cost covered (Navigo pass)
• 100% private health insurance (mutuelle) covered
• Free meal & coffee during your shift break
• CSE access to discounts and events
• Paid full immersion training program for new starters
• Access to citizenM learning and development programs
• Global opportunities - chance to work in other citizenMs around the world
• Employee assistance and wellbeing program (EAP)
• citizenM uniform and comfy shoes by On Running
• Referral program - Get €1000 if one of your best friends joins us too!

Your typical citizenM shift could include:

• Preparing and presenting hot and cold meals for hotel guests, visitors and business meetings
• Dishwashing, kitchen cleaning, food handling and cooking according to HACCP regulations
• Assisting our guests with questions about the dishes or the menu

Do you have what we are looking for?

• Have at least a basic understanding of written and spoken English
• Love food and think presentation is as important as preparation
• Can work with minimal supervision in a systematic and organised way, even under pressure
• Always think two steps ahead – anticipate rush hour, organise tasks now for better efficiency later
• Have kitchen skills – enjoy scrambling, fluffing, dressing and presenting food in an attractive way
• Have knowledge of food handling requirements (HACCP) – we will also teach you what you need to know
• Want to be a real kitchen hero – take pride in every dish you send out
• Prefer real nice and passionate personalities instead of corporate robots
• Have a unique, fresh culture where everyone is free to do their best for the hotel and the guests
• Have a truly international environment – you’ll be working with and meeting citizens of the world every day
• Offer a competitive market salary and unique perks, plus safety shoes and a citizenM outfit
• Set up specialist training programs (HACCP) and a personal development plan
• Evaluate you on guest satisfaction – if they are happy, so are we

Please note that we are only able to consider applicants with the right to work in France.
