The Head Chef leads the resort kitchen, overseeing food preparation, menus, quality, presentation, hygiene, cost control, purchasing, and kitchen staffing. Candidates are generally expected to have substantial experience as a chef or senior sous chef, preferably in an upscale hotel or resort, with strong knowledge of international cuisine, Indonesian food, HACCP, food safety, budgeting, and team leadership. The role requires creativity, organization, calm decision-making, and the ability to maintain consistent standards in a remote island environment. Candidates should be comfortable training multicultural teams, coordinating with restaurant and banquet operations, managing suppliers, and working flexible hours, including weekends and holidays.
Courtyard by Marriott Nusa Lembongan Bali Resort is part of Courtyard by Marriott, an international hotel brand operated within Marriott International’s global hospitality network. Courtyard properties typically serve leisure and business travelers with comfortable accommodation, restaurants, recreational facilities, meeting or event services, and practical guest amenities. The Nusa Lembongan resort is positioned in one of Bali’s popular island destinations, known for beaches, coral reefs, diving, surfing, and a relaxed atmosphere. As a Marriott-affiliated property, it is expected to follow established standards for guest service, food safety, sustainability, employee conduct, and operational quality. Employees may work with an international team while serving domestic and overseas guests. Resort roles commonly include staff meals, accommodation or housing support, training, career development, and access to hospitality benefits, depending on the employment package and local regulations.
Indonesia offers hospitality opportunities across Bali, Nusa Lembongan, Lombok, the Gili Islands, Java, Flores, and other resort destinations. Demand is strongest in hotels, restaurants, diving, wellness, events, guest services, engineering, and tourism management. Island life is generally relaxed and community-oriented, with rich Hindu, Muslim, and local cultural traditions, though customs vary by region. Nusa Lembongan has a slower pace, beautiful beaches, and excellent diving, but fewer shops, healthcare facilities, and transport links than Bali. Salaries may be lower than in major international markets, while accommodation, meals, service charge, and transport can significantly affect the overall package. Foreign nationals normally require employer sponsorship and the appropriate Indonesian work and stay permits; working on a tourist visa is not permitted. Candidates should confirm visa sponsorship, housing, insurance, flights, tax treatment, contract length, and emergency arrangements before relocating. Weather, ferry access, limited supplies, and seasonal tourism should also be considered.
