Will you help us keep our kitchen spotless?
Ghent Marriott Hotel is looking for a motivated and reliable Kitchen Steward to support our kitchen team. You ensure that dishes, cutlery, and cooking utensils are always clean and ready so that the kitchen runs smoothly. Hygiene, speed, and teamwork are at the heart of your work.
Are you someone who likes to bring order, works accurately, and enjoys helping behind the scenes of a modern hospitality business? Then you might be the colleague we are looking for.
How you make a difference behind the scenes
* You are responsible for washing plates, glasses, cutlery, and kitchen utensils using a professional dishwasher.
* You ensure that all materials are neatly returned to their designated places.
* You help keep the kitchen clean, including floors, work surfaces, and waste disposal.
* You assist the team with the daily opening and closing of the kitchen.
* You promptly report shortages of cleaning supplies or technical issues.
* You work closely with the kitchen and service teams.
Who are we looking for?
* Experience in a similar role is a plus, but not required.
* You have an eye for cleanliness and work quickly and systematically.
* You are physically fit and like to roll up your sleeves.
* You are flexible and willing to work during weekends and holidays.

What do we offer you?
* A long-term engagement with a permanent contract.
* An attractive salary package, including:
o DKV hospitalization insurance
o Meal vouchers and eco vouchers
o Worldwide staff discounts within Marriott International
* A flexible work arrangement: we support a healthy work-life balance and adapt to each other’s needs. A non-traditional 9-to-5 schedule also has its advantages – pick up your kids from school, join that Tuesday sports class, or enjoy your free time while others are working.
* A unique start from the very beginning! Be part of an exciting hotel opening where you can make an impact from day one.
* Room for growth, via the Marriott training platform and on-the-job coaching.
* An open and supportive company culture – we believe in teamwork, trust, and having fun at work.
