Company Description
We’re looking for a passionate Chef de Partie to join our team at Lotti’s. Lotti's is our buzzing neighbourhood restaurant. The menu features an internationally inspired brasserie style cuisine with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. During the day, Lotti's is a place to meet, relax or work, and from Friday to Sunday the bar plays host to local DJ talent.
Reporting to our Head and Sous Chef you will be responsible to supervise the assigned station of the kitchen, in order to prepare a high-quality product and to ensure highly efficient and effective service.
More about us…
Once the Mayor’s home, now our home, on Amsterdam’s Herengracht canal. The Hoxton, Amsterdam houses 111 rooms, The Apartment, our meetings & events concept, and our all-day restaurant & bar, Lotti’s.
The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces.
What’s in it for you…
- Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences.
- Competitive salary.
- 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays) and pension.
- Food on us during your shift.
- Enjoy a free night at The Hoxton and a meal for two when you first start with us.
- Training to get you settled into your role with ongoing development that helps you think, make and thrive to set you up for success at work.
- Time off to volunteer with one of our partner charities.
- Hox Hero and Nifty fifty, our rewards for going the extra mile and living our values.
- An annual diversity and inclusion calendar of events creating opportunities for you to learn, celebrate and make a positive impact.
- Regular team get togethers, from our High Fives to our (pretty special!) team parties – we know how to have a good time!
- The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.
- It’s ok not to be ok, we offer access to OpenUp, a trusted platform for professional support and a network of mental health first aiders.
- Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that is shaking things up on the hospitality scene.
- Excellent discounts across The Hoxton and the global Ennismore family.
Job Description
What you’ll do…
- Bring delicious flavours to our guests’ tables by running a section in our busy kitchen.
- Nurture and develop the talent of the kitchen team, creating an environment that brings out the best in them and where they can be themselves.
- Make sure things are running without hitch, orders and deliveries are coming and going as needed, our service is smooth and our food hygiene standards are sky-high.
- Work with our Head Chef on ideas and techniques that make our kitchen a creative, ever-changing environment where we’re always looking to come up with new, delicious combinations of tastes.
Qualifications
What we're looking for...
- Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits 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.
- Previous experience working as part of a fast-moving kitchen team.
- Passion for food is a given; a love for our particular flavours a definite advantage.
