All-round Cook / Chef de Partie - brasserie in 5-star hotel Amsterdam canal district

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.
