Job description

Independent Chef Wanted (36–40 hours, Amstelveen)

You’ll work with a fixed menu that changes every season, curated by our chef using fresh, daily ingredients. The kitchen team is small. That means direct communication, the chance to contribute your own ideas, and the freedom to help develop dishes. You won’t be working anonymous shifts: guests keep coming back here, and you’ll see right away the impact of your work.

You’ll earn between €3,000 and €3,500 gross per month. Plus: free car washes at Loogman, a discount at the brasserie, and a drink at the bar with your coworkers after your shift. No empty promises about career advancement—just a boss who’ll teach you the ropes and an organization (the Loogman Group) with plenty of room to grow if you want to.

What does your typical workday look like?

Your workday starts at 11 a.m., and you walk into the kitchen. The head chef has already started, because you have a full schedule today. An event is scheduled for late afternoon, and reservations are pouring in. So, let’s get to work! Of course, you start with the prep work, but there’s also time for a little fun in between. You always stick strictly to the schedule, and today you’re finished well ahead of time, too. And then: Showtime! The orders are pouring in. This is no problem for you, because you always keep a cool head during stressful moments. At Brasserie 10, we only use high-quality, fresh ingredients. You turn every plate into a true work of art. Your workday is already coming to an end—all that’s left is to give the kitchen a thorough cleaning. You wrap up the day at the bar with a nice drink alongside your great coworkers.

What do we offer?

• A hard-working, fun, and friendly team with a great work environment.
• A position where you can grow in the culinary profession.
• Opportunities for advancement within the cooking team.
• Good employee benefits, such as free car washes and a discount at the brasserie.

Are you our new chef?

• You have completed a culinary training program.
• A chef with expertise in both hot and cold dishes.
• You have 1–3 years of experience in the kitchen.
• You have knowledge of cooking techniques, HACCP, and fresh-daily products and ingredients.
• You’re a chef with a creative mindset, because your ideas matter.
