Be part of our culinary future!
Here at Familux, we’re planning something truly special!
Together with top chef Mike Süsser, we’re creating a new à la carte restaurant at the Dachsteinkönig that offers creative and modern takes on high-quality, regional ingredients. A stylish, cozy atmosphere and a live cooking experience over an open fire make a visit to Firedeck a true highlight for all the senses.
To ensure this project becomes the culinary centerpiece of our resorts, we’re looking for you: a passionate Chef de Cuisine (m/f/d) who enjoys redefining moments of culinary delight and inspiring guests with craftsmanship and creativity.

As Chef de Cuisine, you’ll be responsible—under the resort’s Executive Chef—for the operational, technical, and financial management of the restaurant. You’ll play a key role in shaping the culinary offerings, ensure quality standards are met, lead the kitchen team with clarity and motivation, and bear full responsibility for the success of the à la carte concept.
Your main responsibilities:
- Managing all kitchen operations—organizational, technical, and personnel-related
- Developing and implementing creative, seasonal à la carte menus with a distinctive culinary style, in exclusive collaboration with Mike Süsser
- Leading, motivating, and developing the kitchen team
- Active involvement in day-to-day operations and ensuring smooth workflow in the kitchen
- Responsibility for purchasing, cost calculations, cost of goods sold, and the ongoing optimization of the cost structure
- Responsibility for work schedules, shift rosters, inventory counts, and general financial management of the kitchen
- Compliance with and monitoring of all hygiene and quality standards in accordance with HACCP
This goes without saying for you:
- You have strong leadership skills and serve as a role model
- Creativity and a passion for high-quality cuisine
- You’re a natural organizer, resilient, and flexible
- Attention to quality and detail
- Entrepreneurial mindset and business acumen
- Ability to work in a team, strong communication skills, and loyalty
- You enjoy playing the role of host and collaborating across departments
- Very good German skills; English is a plus

- Creative freedom from the very beginning
- An independent team with no need to switch between hotel and restaurant operations
- Regular work hours during afternoon and evening shifts, no split shifts
- Monday and Tuesday as fixed days off

- More free time and predictability thanks to a clear scheduling model

- More than just “all-inclusive” (buffet for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as snacks and, of course, drinks—even on your days off)
- Free enrollment in the Familux Academy—a training program with 120 courses

- A unique local bonus* of up to €300 gross in addition (if you don’t need housing from us)
