Company Description

At The Ivy Hotel, our staff makes every effort to give each guest an outstanding experience, whether they’re here for dinner or an extended stay. We strive to maintain our reputation for sterling service, and are always looking for exceptional staff members ready to join the team at our historic Mount Vernon hotel, located in Baltimore, Maryland.

The 17-room Mount Vernon mansion defies the traditional luxury hotel experience by inviting guests to make the house their own magnificent home in every sense of the word. Similar to a European countryside chateau, the property’s mystique comes from a combination of history dating back to 1889 and curated treasures collected from around the world. Each room, from the public spaces like the Conservatory and Library to the nine suites and eight bedrooms, is a completely different work of art. Just like the all-embracing warmth of Baltimore, The Ivy is a place for guests to slow down and nurture their true selves. 

Job Description

The Ivy Hotel Baltimore is seeking to add a dedicated culinary professional to its ranks. This rare opportunity allows for the chance to join the culinary team of a Relais & Chateaux property which is a global leader in culinary excellence as well as setting standards for the rest of the world. Magdalena is an American Contemporary restaurant running a French brigade-style kitchen with Chef Scott Bacon at the helm. The Magdalena practices refined culinary techniques for an almost entirely locally driven menu including whole animal butchery/utilization, methods of seasonal preservation, as well as in-house baking and pastry to create an artistic expression of from scratch Maryland.

The team at The Ivy Hotel and Magdalena are taking our time to find the right candidates as we are offering high reward to the team that will take us to a nomination. This establishment and team recently featured in Food and Wine is a great opportunity for worldwide recognition where hard work and refined excellence are frequently recognized.

Does your ideal work week look like preparing your weekend service by breaking down whole fish, dry aging ducks, drying spices, pickling harvest end produce, going to farms to pick up seasonal bounties, clipping flowers for garnish, and then leading a world-class team into a sold-out weekend to perfectly execute dinner service with regional defining cuisine?

Magdalena is closed Sundays and Mondays with a last seating during the week at 9 and weekends at 10.
