Atelier by Richard is a French-Balinese fine grocery and gourmet traiteur founded by Chef Richard Gillet in Kerobokan, Bali. Built around a Kitchen Lab and a charcuterie workshop, we craft cured meats from Bangkal Hitam, the Balinese black pig, and curate premium gourmet products under the Bali Heritage label. This is a station-lead role with a real path toward running a section, and a kitchen as our chef-driven concepts expand. We care more about mindset - hunger to learn, ownership, discipline under pressure - than years on a CV.
Key responsibilities
- Run and own a kitchen station end-to-end: mise en place, execution, and service standard
- Execute Atelier's recipes and fiches techniques with consistency in taste, quality, and appearance
- Supervise, train, and set the standard for commis and kitchen stewards on your station
- Control ingredient use, portioning, and waste on your section
- Break down and portion primal cuts to Atelier's butchery standards
- Maintain hygiene and food safety standards in your area, including BPOM/CPPOB practices as they're rolled out
- Keep accurate batch and traceability records at station level
- Work closely with the Kitchen Lab on recipe development and new products
- Take on kitchen leadership duties as your role and the business grow
About you

- Solid foundation in classical technique and food safety
- Basic butchery skills (fabrication, portioning, and knife work on primal cuts)
- Familiar with and diligent about kitchen paperwork - checklists, logs, and station records
- Growth mindset - hungry to learn, takes ownership, wants to lead a kitchen one day
- Experience in an independent, chef-driven kitchen a strong plus, especially from Java or Jakarta
- Willing to relocate to and be based in Kerobokan, Bali
- Comfortable working within structured food-safety systems (BPOM/CPPOB, HACCP, or similar) a plus
- Daily meal allowance
- Performance-based incentives beyond base salary
- Direct mentorship from Chef Richard Gillet
- A genuine growth pathway - from station to section to kitchen leadership - within a fast-developing artisanal food business
- Hands-on exposure to French-Balinese charcuterie craft (Bangkal Hitam) rarely available elsewhere in Indonesia
