The successful candidate must be confident managing themselves within the galley, have strong organisational skills, and be capable of producing high-quality crew meals consistently while also assisting with guest dining when required. Experience with Asian cuisine, fine dining, and classic recipes is essential.

2/1 rotation, EUR salary
