Job description

Chef – ready to create memorable dining experiences in Narvik?

Narvikfjellet is entering some of the most exciting years in its history. As part of this development, we are expanding the dining experiences at Basecamp and Fjellheisrestauranten, with a new restaurant at Basecamp also on the way.

Our guests can look forward to a variety of food and drink experiences: something quick and tasty between runs on the slopes, a warming meal to share, a refreshing drink – and fine dining in spectacular surroundings.

The concepts vary, but our ambition is the same: locally sourced ingredients, high quality and dining experiences that make every visit even better.

We are building a new kitchen team from the ground up and are looking for chefs who want to be part of it from the start. Together, you will help develop the menus and shape the food concepts across our restaurants and dining venues – from simple dishes prepared consistently well to exceptional meals that let the ingredients shine.

Your key responsibilities

• Prepare and present food to a consistently high standard
• Prepare and organise your work to keep kitchen operations run smoothly
• Handle ingredients with care and help reduce food waste
• Work closely with colleagues in the kitchen and restaurant
• Share ideas and contribute to developing our menus

Who are we looking for?

You have experience in a professional kitchen, enjoy your craft and take pride in the food you serve. You will join a kitchen team where good preparation, professional standards and teamwork help us deliver consistent quality to our guests.

A formal qualification as a chef is an advantage, but we also value practical skills and relevant experience.

Be part of Narvikfjellet’s next chapter

There is plenty ahead for Narvik as we prepare for the 2029 Alpine World Ski Championships. The championships are an important milestone, and our ambition is to create a destination that guests want to visit throughout the year.

You will help shape our dining experiences as we grow. As part of Norway’s best group, you will also join a wider community of hospitality professionals, with colleagues across several destinations.

Norway’s Best Group AS (NBG) is a leading Norwegian tourism group, offering some of Norway’s most spectacular nature- and culture-based travel experiences. The group’s headquarters are located in Flåm, with offices in Myrkdalen, Voss, Bergen, and Narvik. We have a national ambition and act as a consolidator within the Norwegian tourism industry. NBG is at the forefront of integrated destination development, with operations built around our year-round destinations in Flåm, Myrkdalen, and Narvik. For more than 25 years, we have positioned Flåm — with the Flåm Railway and the Nærøyfjord — as one of Norway’s most popular travel destinations. In the powder paradise of Myrkdalen, home to Myrkdalen Mountain Village, we operate the largest ski destination in Western Norway. In Northern Norway, we own Narvikfjellet in Narvik and the world’s northernmost wildlife park, Polar Park in Bardu. In addition, the company has activities in Aurland, Lærdal, Geiranger, and Oslo. The company has a strong commercial division that markets and sells both our own products and those of other operators to guests from all over the world. NBG generates annual revenues of more than NOK 850 million, employs over 500 full-time and part-time staff, and welcomes approximately 2 million guests each year. Beyond our destination operations, the NBG Group also owns the innovative company The Fjords, which offers unique zero-emission travel experiences on Norwegian fjords, as well as a 50% ownership stake in the iconic Flåm Railway. NBG is not only a tourism group — we are also a community builder, committed to creating positive ripple effects and attractive local communities wherever we operate. We aim to be at the forefront of sustainable tourism development and to contribute to a responsible and future-oriented tourism industry. We continuously work to reduce our environmental footprint and support local value creation. Our employees are the core of our business, and we strive to create an inclusive, diverse, and equal workplace with attractive career opportunities.
