About the job
The Adullam Foundation is a leading institution for geriatric medicine, therapy, and care in Northwestern Switzerland. It operates a hospital and an affiliated care centre each in Basel and Riehen. The approximately 800 employees provide elderly people with a regionally unique all-round care service from acute medicine through rehabilitation to transitional and long-term care. Holistic care at Adullam includes a high standard of quality, lived humanity, and great respect for old age.
With us, you make a direct contribution to the quality of life of patients, residents, and employees. Nutrition is a central component of recovery, well-being, and joy of life in healthcare – and this is exactly where your commitment comes in.
Due to the retirement of a valued team member, we are looking to strengthen our 12-person kitchen team at the Riehen location from 1 August 2026 or by arrangement with a dedicated individual who contributes daily to the well-being of our guests through their work.
