Base & Kitchen Manager Sea Kayak Center

We are hiring our base manager for the upcoming 2025 season.

Daily work will entail overlooking and managing all aspects of running our new Sea Kayaking Center in Gudvangen with the following responsibility areas:

• Managing a team of 3-4 staff communicating in English.

• Set up staff rosters for our base workers, predicting and matching demand.

• Planning purchases, deliveries, and packing of the food needed for our guided Sea Kayaking tours---ensuring the workload can be met, tour supplies handed over to our guides on time, and fully checked.

• Delegate and ensure that all outside areas, customer areas, and our workspace are kept clean and presentable and that morning, midday, and evening routines are followed.

• Ensure that things such as our garage area, laundry, and daily clean-up procedures are monitored and training provided where needed.

• Ensure kitchen cleanliness standards are met, and all staff implement and follow HACCP measures throughout the season.

• Work closely with our office crew and guide crew to ensure peaks are met and that any issues are resolved quickly

You must have previous experience in a commercial kitchen or similar environment and be able to work in a dynamic environment where frequent changes in demand and priorities can occur.

Your management still involves leading by example, and you will work with the team, not office-based.

You have:

• Knowledge of HACCP routines and the ability to implement these with a team

• A relaxed management style and good energy to share with the team

• A desire to work with a young, dynamic and energized team of international people

• The ability to put in the hard work and energy it takes at peak periods
