About the Role
The Pastry Chef is a key member of our galley team, responsible for preparing all baked goods and desserts served onboard — from freshly baked breads and pastries to plated desserts, teatime treats, and special occasion items. This hands-on role plays a central part in shaping the guest dining experience, delivering consistent quality and presentation while also supporting dietary needs such as gluten-free, vegan, and allergy-sensitive items.
Working closely with the Head Chef, the Pastry Chef manages daily production, assists with inventory and ordering, and ensures sanitation and food safety standards are met at all times. While the primary focus is baking and pastry, this role also contributes to broader galley operations, including cleaning, provisioning, and occasional support with crew meals or dishwashing.
This position is ideal for someone with strong baking and pastry skills, excellent time management, and a passion for working in dynamic, team-driven environments. Pastry Chefs work approximately 12 hours per day on a rotational schedule of 8 weeks on / 4 weeks off.
