Company Description

The Hoxton is gearing up for another milestone moment as it prepares to open its very first hotel in Scandinavia in the Norwegian capital of Oslo. Known as one of the greenest cities in the world, Oslo balances access to pristine nature with parks, Fjords and Forests with a rich cultural heritage in art, modern architecture and maritime history. We’ll be calling the New Government Quarter our home but first we need to pull together a team to help us bring the Hox to a brand new market. The Hoxton, Oslo will be home to 144 bedrooms of varying sizes, three unique restaurant and bar concepts including an all-day dining destination, a speciality restaurant and a cocktail bar. It will also feature The Apartment, The Hoxton’s signature meetings & events concept space.

Job Description

What you’ll do…

• Lead a large, dynamic kitchen team in one of the most exciting restaurants in Oslo.
• Drive innovation and create a culture of menu development.
• Have a firm grip on the costs of the restaurant kitchen, from labour through to always striving to find efficient solutions whilst maintaining the quality and integrity of the menu.
• Both guest and team experience will be at the heart of all you do. You’ll lead your team by example, keeping them involved and motivated; helping them feel empowered and supported, confident in providing top Hox experiences for our guests and comfortable turning to you with questions.

Qualifications

What we’re looking for…

• Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in chef whites here.
• Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done.
• You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
• If we got stuck in a lift together, we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other, and has fun along the way.
• 2+ years’ experience in a similar Head Chef role in a busy, bustling environment with freshness and provenance of ingredients as a key priority.
• Proven track record managing large kitchen teams across multiple outlets and kitchens.
• A true passion for creativity whilst maintaining the integrity of our brand standards through the dishes on the menu.
