OSOYOOS, B.C. — Watermark Beach Resort has welcomed Jeffery Young as its executive chef.
Young brings a wealth of experience gained over three decades in the hospitality sector, spanning renowned establishments across Canada, including positions at the Four Seasons Hotel and Resorts, Fairmont Hotels and acclaimed wineries such as Summerhill Pyramid Winery. Young’s first position as a kitchen dishwasher at a suburban Vancouver country club inspired him to pursue Vancouver Community College’s Culinary Arts program immediately after high school.
“Osoyoos is home to a number of gastronomic innovations, and I’m excited to create unforgettable dining experiences that highlight the incredible bounty of this region. Building on the strong culinary team and crafting memorable moments for our guests, whether they’re dining on the patio at 15 Park or attending an event in our conference centre, will be my top priorities,” says Young.
Young earned the British Columbia Chef’s Association (BCCA) Chef of the Year award in 2009 as well as multiple golf medals with the Culinary Team Canada at the World Culinary Olympics. In September 2016, he accepted the two-year position of president on the BCCA Board.
