Job description

Rich gastronomy of all sorts plus a dash of Swiss charm—that is what you will love as our chef de parti at Mövenpick in Amsterdam. Bring your ideas to the table on the dishes we serve and ensure excellent preparation and the tastiest courses in a hygienic working environment. In doing so, you will make sure that our guests have a true experience. At Mövenpick, wemake moments. Do you?

Be limitless

Running and standing are part of this profession and can happen at all times throughout the day. Whether it is lunch, dinner, or a banqueting event, you will ensure the right preparation, so when it gets busy, you and your team can get to work quickly and efficiently. In this way the best dishes on the menu are created. Do you have your own ideas for dishes? Great! Contribute them and think along on how we can improve our menu and continuously innovate. We are one team with one task, so if you notice that the inventory is dwindling or if you need other products, then ring the bell. Are other departments involved in the dinner or event? Then you will also ensure open and accessible lines of communication with them. There are no limits to your abilities. In addition, you will be:

• versatile. Lunch, dinner, snacks, or banqueting—no matter where we put you, you will ensure the best quality;
• responsible for hygiene. You will keep your own bench clean and help others if necessary;
• proficient in English. Because of our international roots, our working language is English.

Afternoons, evenings and weekends— all these shifts will come along.

Proud to present

Mövenpick: the place to enjoy life. Inside, we create a space for our guests to enjoy by relaxing at the bar with a delicious cocktail or a creamy cappuccino. In our restaurants, you can discover the most delicious special dishes. We are originally from Switzerland, and we carry this luxurious gastronomic hospitality with us. ‘Enjoying life to the fullest.’ That is our mantra for our guests, but also for you as an employee.

‘Enjoying food’ is the motto for you and your team. The composition of your team is ever-changing and depends on your shifts at our beautiful 4-star hotel looking out over the IJ river in Amsterdam. There is no shortage of variety with us. You are just as happy baking snacks as coming up with a brilliant dish. It all goes into giving our guests the true experience. You will work in a hotel that works together with the Passenger Terminal Amsterdam, a total combined conference space of over 1900 m2, including 11 modern and spacious conference and directors’ rooms. Through the emergence of ijVENUES, Amsterdam’s new exhibition centre, everything only becomes bigger and better. On a lovely, sunny day, you can choose between a 10-minute walk or a 5-minute cycle ride from the central station. Or you can hop on the tram from the other side of our hotel. In short: we have it all.
