You step into service with your mise en place ready, a fixed section under your responsibility and a team that communicates clearly. Once the orders start coming in, the pace builds. You keep control, guard the timing and make sure every dish leaves the kitchen consistently.
In this brasserie, you are not working in high-volume production. You work at a steady, demanding level, with services of around 100 covers in a 5-star hotel in the Amsterdam canal district, where details matter.
About the place
You will work in an independent 5-star hotel in the Amsterdam canal district, directly by the water. It is a classic and well-known hotel with a strong reputation in the Netherlands and internationally.
Inside the hotel, there is also a two Michelin-starred restaurant. That level of precision and discipline is reflected in the wider kitchen operation. The brasserie works at a casual fine dining level: accessible in style, but technically sharp in execution.
You will work in a recently renovated kitchen with high-quality equipment.
The role
As an All-round Cook / Chef de Partie, you work on a fixed section, such as rotisserie or garnish. During lunch and dinner services, you make sure your section is ready, your mise en place is organised and communication with the rest of the kitchen stays clear.
You are part of a structured, international brigade where expectations are clear and communication is direct. On the floor, the team works with a coaching approach.
What will you do?
● Work on a fixed section, such as rotisserie or garnish
● Prepare mise en place for lunch and dinner services
● Run your section during services of around 100 covers
● Maintain consistency, timing and quality under pressure
● Coordinate closely with the team during peak moments
● Move between different sections when needed
Who are we looking for?
● You have experience as a cook, all-round cook or Chef de Partie
● You have experience in a brasserie or similar kitchen
● You can work in a structured, high-level kitchen environment
● You stay calm and precise during service
● You can work across multiple sections when needed
● You communicate clearly with colleagues
What do we offer?
● €19 per hour, including holiday pay and accrued vacation days
● Tips
● Full-time employment of 38 hours per week
● A 4- or 5-day workweek
● Rotating lunch and dinner shifts
● Working in a recently renovated kitchen
● Travel allowance
● You start on a temporary contract, with the intention of moving into direct employment with the hotel
● This usually happens around 1,300 worked hours, but can happen earlier when performance and fit are strong
Closing
This role suits a cook who enjoys working in an organised kitchen where quality, rhythm and clear communication matter. You build experience in a recognised hotel environment and work at a level that gives weight to the next step in your hospitality career.
