Line Cook (Seasonal)
Hospitality & Horeca — Kotor, Montenegro
P-197 · Functional (B1) · 8 openings
Cook for a well-run restaurant inside the Bay of Kotor during a packed summer. Fresh Adriatic produce, a head chef who actually teaches, and pay that rewards a clean, fast line.
About role
Run your station on the hot or cold line through service: prep mise en place, fire dishes to order, plate to the head chef's standard, and keep the station spotless under HACCP rules. Work fish, grilled meats and pasta to a steady rhythm during full lunch and dinner rushes.
Who's a fit?
Minimum 3 years on a professional line, ideally in a fish or Mediterranean kitchen. Solid knife work and a feel for timing on a busy pass. Basic English (B1) for the brigade and suppliers. You handle 250-cover nights without dropping the standard or your composure.
Benefits
Health insurance from day one, staff accommodation in the bay, two meals per shift and clean laundered uniforms. Paid vacation per law, overtime paid at the legal rate, and a season-end bonus for the kitchen team. Relocation help for cooks coming from the north.
Promotion terms
Growth track: Line Cook → Chef de Partie (after 12 months) → Sous Chef (after 24 to 36 months). The restaurant pays for HACCP refreshers and specialist fish and pastry courses for cooks who want them.
Work environment
