Management Team

Mira Haus, Manager's Assistant
She fell in love during her very first job in Switzerland. With the Engadine, because Mira loves skiing and hiking. And with Hotel Steinbock, because as a hotel professional, she can make perfect use of her expertise here. Except for the occasional break, this talented linguist has been a familiar face for our guests since 2000 – as well as a reliable source of support for the hotel management.

Jan Burgard, Chef
The master of our kitchen places utmost importance on fresh and regional products coupled with innovation and creativity. Our chef, who was born in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany and who came to Switzerland to pursue his career in this country in 2003, believes that less is sometimes more and the main thing is to get the best taste out of every product. This is an ideal fit for the Steinbock, just like Jan Burgard is an ideal fit for the Engadine: he can pursue his love of sports on snowboard, foot and bike until his heart's content in this region.

Nico Senn, Vice Director & HR Manager
Nico Senn had professionally checked-in in Vienna, Shanghai and Zurich before opening the doors of the Hotel Walther and taking over as Vice Director & HR Manager. What you have to be able to do? Everything. But above all you have to be a dedicated host. No problem for the chef, F&B manager and hotel owner who makes everything possible for our guests, even if it seems impossible at first.
