We are looking for experienced chefs to take on the challenge of running our busy restaurants, working closely with our Head Chef to motivate the kitchen team to produce consistent, good quality dishes throughout the summer season.
Last summer we revamped food at Peligoni with the introduction of two exciting new restaurant concepts. This year, we’re going a step further and creating a third dining space for 50 covers in our stunning Courtyard which will feature a variety of barbeque dishes cooked over an open fire complemented by freshly prepared salads and sides. The Terraces seat around 80 covers and is home to a menu featuring Mediterranean inspired dishes, prepared from an open air kitchen where chefs show off their culinary skills and families gather to dine in style. Tasi provides an informal setting for a variety of delicate small plates. Food arrives as it is ready, Venitian cicchetti in style. Guests can order as little or as much as they like, spend hours relaxing with a bottle of wine and good company, or grab a quick bite before heading out onto the water. Each of these restaurants will be led by their very own Sous Chef who will report to our Head Chef.
Evenings at Peligoni are a unique affair with something different happening each night and our dining options reflects this. The Courtyard hosts weekly events including our family barbeque and food festival nights: open mic style live music accompanies pop up food stalls where our chefs produce creative and tasty street food. Once a week we host a dinner party in The Terraces, giving guests the opportunity to dress up for dinner and meet new people and our chefs the chance to really show off their culinary skills.
Throughout the low season we also host our Guest Chef Series. Now in it’s fourth year, accomplished chefs join us each week working directly with our kitchen team to showcase their talent and produce a delicious and exciting menu to dazzle foodie fans, staff and guests alike. In previous years we have be joined by Ellis Barrie, Jackson Boxer and Gill Meller, to name a few and this summer is set to be another great series with feasts from the Gladwin Brothers, Elizabeth Haigh, Neil Rankin and more.

Work at The Peligoni Club this
Summer!
The Peligoni Club is a family-run beach club in Greece. It’s a
members-only retreat for a fun-loving bohemian crowd who want
delicious food, creative cocktails, friendly staff and sumptuous
settings, but without all the fuss that usually comes with high-end
hotels.
Small and personal with a focus on quality over quantity, the
club moulds itself around our guests and their idea of the perfect
holiday. For some that might be an action packed week of
watersports, yoga and tennis and for others that might be a series
of long lazy lunches, time in the sun and being able to really let
their hair down whilst our childcare team look after the little
ones; whatever they feel like, we’ve got it covered.
Our staff are the life and soul of The Peligoni Club and we are
looking for a vibrant team of charming, professional and hard
working people to join us next summer.
