About the job

The Waldhaus beider Basel opened in February 2023 and is located in the Birsfelder Hardwald on the outskirts of Basel, nestled in the midst of nature. It includes a boutique hotel with 20 rooms, a traditional restaurant with a large terrace, and a refreshment stand with a unique view of the Rhine. The offer consists of gastronomic classics and dishes that one would expect "in the forest" and "on the Rhine." The culinary offer is complemented by the self-produced soft drinks of the Wyniger Group: beer from the "Stadtmauer Brauer" brewery and various Rhine brand products. The contemporary traditional business focuses on regional and seasonal products.

The Waldhaus beider Basel is part of the owner-managed Wyniger Group, which operates several restaurants, bars, hotels as well as a brewery, roastery, a cleaning company, and a wine shop with its own spirits brands in the Basel region.

For our temporary service pool, we are looking for motivated, flexible, and service-oriented personalities who enjoy interacting with guests and want to actively support our team when needed.

Assignments are flexible by arrangement and can also take place in our new restaurant "OttO" on Hammerstrasse in Basel, which we will open in January 2026. This gives you the opportunity to be part of a fresh, lively gastronomy concept and gain valuable experience in an exciting environment.

YOUR TASKS

As a service employee, you are responsible for the professional care and advice of our guests. You serve food and drinks properly, independently coordinate your service station area, and ensure a smooth process in the service. You also set the tables, prepare them, and give recommendations on food and wines to support sales. Responsibility for order and cleanliness in the entire service area is also in your hands, as well as the consistent implementation and adherence to our high-quality standards.

Reliable, friendly personality with joy in teamwork
Ideally first experience in the service sector
Passion for direct guest contact
Very good German skills in spoken and written form
