Cook / Cookess

Stiftung Amalie Widmer - May 25, 2026

Join Our Culinary Team at Widmerheim

“With age, it’s like with wine – the older ones should also be something special.”

At Widmerheim, we're dedicated to making every meal a delightful experience for our approximately 100 care-dependent residents. We're seeking a young, flexible, and committed culinary professional to join our team.

What We're Looking For

You don’t need to have 20 Gault-Millau points, but we do require a few years of experience as a trained cook. Your role will involve not only pampering the taste buds of our residents but also those of our external guests and staff who dine in our public restaurant, which is open during the day. Evenings can become quite lively with banquets, parties, and special events, so a dynamic kitchen team is essential.

Your Skills

  • Ability to prepare delicious and visually appealing dishes.
  • Experience working in a fast-paced kitchen environment.
  • Strong teamwork orientation and flexibility.

Why Work With Us?

People say that working with us in Horgen is a joyful experience, not only because of the stunning lake view. We believe that satisfied staff contribute positively to our team dynamic. Here, you can sing while you work—preferably alongside us—but remember, this makes everything more enjoyable! We offer:

  • Chocolate cake on your birthday.
  • Free parking.
  • Access to our own bus stop.
  • Numerous internal training opportunities.

Meet Your New Colleagues

We pride ourselves on having a friendly and supportive team. But don't just take our word for it—come see for yourself!
