PpArtisan of travel since 1883, Orient Express sublimates the art of travel with its luxury trains, hotels, and sailing yachts. The brand has just launched its first hotel, Orient Express La Minerva, in Rome – which will be followed by Orient Express Venezia at Palazzo Donà Giovannelli in 2026. The experience continues with the recent launch of La Dolce Vita Orient Express train, followed by Orient Express Corinthian in 2026, the first of two Orient Express Sailing Yachts, and finally, the return of L’Orient Express train to railways. Since 2022, Orient Express is part of Accor Group’s leading collection of luxury brands with a century-old legacy in the hotels and fine‑dining sectors. In 2024, Accor and LVMH entered into a strategic partnership to accelerate the development of Orient Express.

Orient Express has entrusted the interior architecture and artistic direction of the hotel Hugo Toro. The former Palazzo Fonseca is a sumptuous 17th‑century palace with a huge, majestic façade. A place of memory still adorned with its Roman columns, sculptures by Rinaldo Rinaldi, a disciple of Canova, and the fascinating goddess Minerva. At the end of 2024, a new décor and interior inspired by the Roman domus and the riches of the "Eternal City" will be revealed with a new touch of contemporary elegance. /p h3Job Description /h3 h3Position Overview /h3 pOur bChef de Partie – Pastry /b is a key member of the Pastry Team, dedicated to ensuring excellence, creativity, and consistency within the Pastry section in line with the standards of a 5‑star luxury hotel. /p pThis role supports the Pastry Chef in overseeing pastry operations, ensuring the highest quality of desserts, baked goods, and pastry items for all hotel outlets, including restaurants, banqueting, and in‑room dining.
