Work with us
At Bryggargatan, we are building a restaurant where high standards in the kitchen go hand in hand with a sustainable way of working.
Based in Skellefteå in northern Sweden, our team enjoys short commutes, time outdoors, and a rhythm of work that allows life beyond service. Here, many of us walk or cycle to work, spend our days off in nature, and occasionally look up to see the northern lights overhead.
We’re always interested in meeting talented, dedicated people who want to be part of a professional and supportive team.
Senior Chef
Relocate to Northern Sweden
We are looking for experienced chefs who want to continue cooking at a high level while building a more balanced life outside the kitchen.
This role is for chefs who have spent years in demanding restaurant environments - perhaps in London, Copenhagen, or other large cities - and who are now looking for something different.
Not less ambition, but a better rhythm. Not less quality, but a more sustainable way of working.
Bryggargatan is a modern brasserie with strong French, Asian and Nordic influences, rooted in seasonal ingredients, craftsmanship, and hospitality.
We care deeply about the food we cook, the standards we uphold, and the culture we create as a team.
Life in northern Sweden offers something many chefs find increasingly hard to access in larger cities - space, calm, and time.
In Skellefteå, the commute to work is short. Many people walk or cycle. The pace outside the restaurant is slower. In winter, the northern lights appear overhead. In summer, the evenings stretch on in endless daylight. We believe it should be possible to be serious about food and still have a life beyond service.
What we offer:
• A professional kitchen with high standards and strong ambitions
• Sustainable working hours
• A schedule of 4 days on and 3 days off
• Shifts of 12 hours maximum
• A short commute - easily walkable or bikeable
• Competitive salary
• Support with relocation for the right candidate
• The opportunity to live and work in northern Sweden
Who we are looking for
We are looking for senior chefs with solid professional experience, strong technical skills, and a calm, team-oriented approach to service.
You should be confident in a fast-paced kitchen, take pride in your craft, and be ready to contribute experience, stability, and leadership to the team.
This is a role for someone who wants to keep cooking seriously - but no longer wants the lifestyle that often comes with big-city restaurant work. If that sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.
