txaba is looking for waiters and bartenders for our new Tapas-restaurant that will open in october!
About the work
Help us to develop restaurant life in Bodø!
Favn serving opens txaba, Tapas + Wine, a new creative restaurant & wine bar in Ramsalt/centrum in october 2023.
Here we cheer for the good life: good food, good wine, good cocktails and music that plays a little louder than in other places.
The food is served from an open industrial kitchen. Here we make tapas.
The menu also bears the stamp of the season. We care about good ingredients and sometimes want to be able to partisipate with what we get locally. But the most important thing of all is that it should taste amaizing.
We will have an impressive wine menu with wines from all over the world and serve fantastic cocktails at the same time.
We are looking for you who have good work capacity, have an interest in food and wine, and go with a desire to create unique guest experiences.
As a waiter and bartender, you are the company's face to our guests, and therefore a very important person for us. You are responsible for service and the guest experience on your shift, and have a lot of freedom to succeed in your job. You are responsible for ensuring that all areas in the restaurant appear inviting and presentable at all times.
Your focus will always be to ensure that all our guests receive the best service every time they visit us.
It is important that you have a passion for food and wine, and are concerned with quality in your work. A desire to learn more will be central.
As a waiter with us, you must enjoy hectic weekdays, and be able to handle stressful situations in a way that does not affect you, your colleagues or our guests.

About FAVN
Favn Servering is Bodø's leading restaurant operator, and has the city's largest professional community within food and drink.
Favn Servering is responsible for the operation of seven - soon to be nine- different restaurants, cafes and pubs in Bodø. The places are in many ways very different; they all have their own concept, and their own atmosphere and soul, and their unique specialities. What they all have in common is that they are runned by people with a passion for good experiences - in the form of food and drink, service and atmosphere, community and working environment.
We at Favn have developed and established several successful catering establishments over the years, where all are well profiled, very popular, and for many a first choice when they go out to enjoy themselves. We have clean restaurants with different profiles, a sports bar, small bars, larger bars and an artisan bakery in our selection of good places to eat. We consistently serve opera and other culture, of a very high international class, from the city's smallest stage. We brew our own beer, make our own pasta, serve Italian pizzas from a wood-fired oven, and have sold huge quantities of dried fish over the course of fifteen years. Grilled and served, in exactly the same way, to thousands of guests, both locals and visitors. Yes, even the supplier in Lofoten is still the same. Various local ingredients, from local producers, are getting more and more space in our menus.
Over the years, we have delivered countless catering assignments, both large and small, as well as being a stable and good partner for several of the city's festivals. We can simply deliver something for the vast majority of purposes, almost whatever our guests want. Common to all our places, to everything we do, is continuous work to develop ourselves: the places, the concepts and of course – our many talented employees.
We at Favn serving are not afraid to give responsibility and leadership roles to young people, and many have built their CV with us. Several of our locations are approved apprenticeship companies, and we have apprentices with us at all times. That's how it's always been, that's how it still is. Some leave us after a while, many stay with us for a long time, and some both want and can end up as partners with us. The possibilities are many!
All administration is carried out internally, including accounting and payroll, and the administration is a good supporter for our managers all around. We have good knowledge of operations and follow-up, and can offer a lot of knowledge and training on this, for those who want and need it. We have good finances and solid owners, as well as long-term and good relationships with banks, landlords and others with whom we deal in our work.
As owners, we are locally rooted in Bodø, are close to all our businesses, are closely interested in the city's good development, and also try with our catering establishments to be a positive small contribution in this respect. We employ many people, a large proportion of whom are younger workers, and contribute with local investment and value creation, year after year. We collaborate with and sponsor both sports and culture, big and small actors. All to the delight of the local community we live in. We shall continue to do so for many years to come.
