We who work at the hotel are primarily a team and always work towards a common goal. We like to take care of our guests and maintain a high level of service.

The fact that the three Scandi hotels in Linköping have joint management gives our employees great development opportunities.
We are now looking for a Head Waiter for Restaurant Scandic Linköping City.
Regardless of why the guest comes to us, there are few things that are as appreciated as a friendly face that greets you. As a Shift Leader, you act as a host together with the rest of the team at the hotel and create a world-class guest experience.
During your time with us, these areas may vary as you and the business develop. You'll take a lot of responsibility for making the decisions needed to satisfy our guests, and our teams will develop and improve our ways of working and service as the world around us changes.
