Commis de Rang

Berghoferin Fine Hotel & Hideaway ***** in South Tyrol is currently looking for a Commis de Rang for the upcoming summer season (from the end of May to approximately mid-October), with the possibility of renewal for future seasons.

Set in a small mountain hamlet in southern South Tyrol, at 1,500 meters above sea level near the border with Val di Fiemme (Trentino) in the westernmost Dolomites, Berghoferin Fine Hotel & Hideaway is a boutique sanctuary of just 13 suites, combining in a uniquely refined way the charm of a meticulously curated private estate with all the amenities of luxury hospitality.

Nestled in unspoiled nature and far from mass tourism, Berghoferin is a hidden gem, privately owned, with a strong and distinctive character. Remodelled in 2022/2023, the hotel blends alpine authenticity with refined luxury, honouring the region’s heritage while introducing distinctive touches. It attracts a highly international clientele seeking a cultivated and sophisticated experience that inspires and restores.

Berghoferin’s food and beverage offering operates at a consistently high level, with a clear ambition for its cuisine, wine, and service across all F&B outlets to reflect the overall quality and character of the property. At the heart of this is the fine-dining restaurant, which is fully integrated with the hotel experience, yet stands confidently on its own in terms of service vision, operational excellence, and guest experience.

At the core of Berghoferin’s service philosophy are values that reflect and align with the hotel’s approach to hospitality: a deep commitment to personalized, attentive guest service, seamless coordination across all F&B outlets, and respect for the refined character and atmosphere of the property. This is combined with a genuine passion for wine, beverages, and gastronomy, alongside an unwavering focus on operational excellence, polished presentation, and memorable, highly refined guest experiences.

Berghoferin Fine Hotel & Hideaway is seeking a motivated and dedicated Commis de Rang, with a genuine interest in fine dining and a strong commitment to delivering attentive and professional service.

This role is designed for individuals with a completed professional training in hospitality who are at the start of their career or embarking on their journey in fine dining and high-level hospitality, offering hands-on experience in all aspects of service, close collaboration with a small, close-knit team, and ample opportunity to learn, take initiative, and actively contribute to the guest experience. Enthusiasm for learning and growing within a fine-dining setting is essential, while previous experience in high-level hospitality is advantageous.
