About the Position
đœ Opportunity
Sodexo is hiring a Chef ExĂ©cutif for its remote camp kitchen at RĂ©sidence La VĂ©rendrye, deep in Abitibi's boreal forest at kilometre 91 of Chemin de Parent, serving a Hydro-QuĂ©bec worksite. It's a straightforward two-weeks-in, two-weeks-out rotation with a disclosed salary â a rarer thing in this corner of the job market, where "competitive compensation" usually stands in for a real number.
đšâđł Role
- Oversee all food service operations for the remote camp
- Develop and manage menus for a 14-in/14-out rotation crew
- Handle inventory, ordering and supplier coordination for a remote site
- Supervise and schedule kitchen staff
- Maintain the day-to-day client relationship with Hydro-Québec on site
đ ChefJobs Abroad Analysis
Abitibi is genuine northern Quebec bush â boreal forest, lakes, long winters â and a camp posting here means two weeks fully off after every two weeks on, a real trade against the isolation. The disclosed $70,000â$75,000 salary and mandatory culinary diploma requirement point to a kitchen run at an institutional-cooking standard rather than a bare-bones camp galley, which makes this a solid move for a bilingual chef who wants steady camp income without giving up half the year.
â
Best Fit
- Chefs with a professional diploma in institutional cooking and 5+ years of relevant experience
- Candidates who've worked FIFO or remote camp kitchens before and know the rhythm
- Bilingual French/English chefs targeting Quebec's remote-camp sector specifically
- Anyone who wants two full weeks off after every two weeks on site
- Cooks comfortable managing the client relationship directly, not just the kitchen
- Not a fit for chefs without MAPAQ/SIMDUT certification or institutional cooking credentials
Requirements
- Professional diploma in institutional cooking (mandatory)
- Minimum 5 years of relevant experience, ideally in high-volume FIFO camps
- MAPAQ and SIMDUT certifications
- Bilingual French/English
- Proficiency with FMS, Excel, Word and Outlook
- Clean criminal background check
Benefits
- CAD $70,000â$75,000/year
- Housing available upon request
- 14 days on / 14 days off rotation
- Training and development programs
- Career growth opportunities within Sodexo
