At Pulitzer Amsterdam we are true storytellers and you only have to step inside to know why! It is the home of 223 unique guest rooms, the timeless Pulitzer's Bar, café Pulitzer Garden and the modern-Dutch restaurant Jansz., all with stories we can't help but share.
The beating heart of Pulitzer Amsterdam is its team: motivated, passionate and genuine people with service in their veins. We are social and charming by nature, creating everlasting memories for our guests.
At Pulitzer Garden, cooking is all about energy, flavour, and creating memorable moments in one of Amsterdam's most vibrant terrace settings.
Hidden within the inner gardens of Pulitzer Amsterdam, Pulitzer Garden is a lively all day dining concept where guests come together to enjoy fresh Mediterranean inspired dishes, great cocktails, and relaxed hospitality in a beautiful outdoor setting. From sunny lunches to buzzing summer evenings, no service is ever quite the same.
Beyond the restaurant itself, the kitchen also plays an important role in supporting banqueting and events throughout Pulitzer Amsterdam, creating a dynamic environment where variety and teamwork are part of every shift.
The kitchen is led by Italian Chef de Cuisine Christian Baldassini, bringing a strong focus on fresh ingredients, vibrant flavours, and a collaborative kitchen culture.
We are looking for a Demi Chef de Partie who is passionate about food, enjoys working in a fast paced kitchen environment, and wants to grow within a supportive and ambitious team.
