Head Chef for New Restaurant at Hamnplan 5
Hamnplan 5 in Visby is currently a vibrant, seasonal meeting place where fashion, events, and experiences come together under one roof. During the summer months, the premises are filled by two well-known clothing stores – Gant and Sail Racing – contributing to a dynamic and attractive atmosphere in Visby harbor. Beyond retail, Hamnplan 5 serves as a natural and central arena for events, especially during Almedalen Week, where the location has become a key hub for activities, meetings, and networking.
We are now taking the next step and launching our own restaurant in the premises. Ahead of the opening in early 2026, we are initiating a recruitment process to build a strong team that will create even more reasons to visit Hamnplan 5 – year-round and in the heart of summer.
