Zoku
Are you a food artist with great cooking skills who loves to work in an open kitchen? Then keep reading!
Zoku is a home for business travelers who want to live in a city for anywhere from a few days to a few months. We’re not your typical business hotel: we offer a relaxed place to stay, work and meet new people, while helping residents feel connected to the local scene. Our fresh take on hospitality has been recognized around the world with plenty of press attention and design awards.
We’re also proudly B Corp certified at all four of our locations (Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Paris and Vienna), which means we hold ourselves to high standards when it comes to social and environmental impact, transparency and accountability. At Zoku, you’ll join an international team of driven, proactive and fun-loving people who all share one thing: a passion for connecting people across the globe.
TELL ME MORE
Life doesn’t become more social than through sharing food. That’s our founding food philosophy and it can be yours too. The food that comes out of our Living Kitchen is fresh, simple, honest, healthy and local. With short-end preparation times, simple ingredients and limited preparation steps, our assortment is incredibly intelligent and facilitates fast service.
As our Head Chef , you will be responsible for leading our kitchen team, developing menu offerings, and ensuring food costs are in line. You will report to the General Manager.
WHAT WILL YOU DO?
Leading and coaching the kitchen team:
You will efficiently operate Zoku’s Living Kitchen in Copenhagen and ensure it is in line with our main food philosophy. You will manage and coach your kitchen team of around 5 FTE, by creating an environment where people can thrive and develop themselves.
Financial responsibilities:
You own your part of the P&L, by preparing and controlling it to ensure the set budget is achieved (or even better exceeded!). You develop menu offerings and item pricing, monitor your costs and forecast supply needs.
Operational excellence:
You will create beautiful dishes and menus that not only look good, but also taste amazing. You ensure proper SOP implementation and execution of your team, including continuous fine-tuning of the Living Kitchen offering and processes. You will curate offerings for Meetings & Events and our Bar menus. You will also make sure that the kitchen looks amazing and meets all local regulations, including HACCP and safety standards.
Chat up a storm:
You will chat with an international mix of residents and locals. As you are cooking in an open kitchen, you will get to know and chat with guests while cooking up a storm. You will be sure to meet some interesting people along the way!
WHAT MAKES OUR KITCHEN UNIQUE?
You won’t hide in the background. You'll get to work in an open kitchen environment with plenty of space and natural daylight.
You'll get the ultimate flexibility. You can come up with your own dishes and let your creativity run wild.
You can have good conversations with visitors. You’re the face of the kitchen and will get to directly chat with guests.
You get to be independent in your work. You like doing your own thing and can cook solo when you need to.
You'll get to know the entire team. You'll be in close contact with our front of house and the entire Zoku team.
You'll work in a unique kitchen setup. We’re not like your average kitchen (feel free to stop by our rooftop to see for yourself!).
You'll be encouraged to work with fresh and seasonal ingredients. We put a strong emphasis on incorporating vegetables into our dishes.
