YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT

You’re the seasoned culinary professional ready to be a part of and help drive two exciting new projects opening in The Social Hub

Amsterdam City. Grandmother is an all day cafe serving serving sandwiches, baked goods and delicious meals inspired by everyone’s

favourite Grandmother. The Clubhouse is the all-day heart of The Social Hub. A busy, social kitchen serving modern club classics

from breakfast through to late night, built around quality produce, familiar dishes done properly, and a fast, friendly service

culture. It’s a place where chefs cook food people genuinely want to eat, every day.

You’ll oversee kitchen operations across multiple outlets and event spaces, ensuring every dish meets the highest quality

standards and every service runs smoothly. Innovation is your middle name: you bring fresh ideas, seasonal inspiration, and a

touch of daring to every plate while keeping operations efficient and commercially strong.

You lead from the front, coaching your team to grow, collaborate, and perform at their best. Reporting to the Director of F&B and

working closely with the General Manager and Regional Head Chef, you play a key role in maintaining quality, driving culinary

innovation, and achieving operational and financial targets. Your mission is simple: create a kitchen that guests love, and teams

are proud to be part of.

IN CASE YOU DON’T KNOW WHO WE ARE

Known for being the rule breakers in hospitality, TSH is a fun, creative and inspiring environment where everyone can work, stay,

learn and play and most importantly – be themselves. As an employer we look, act and think like a hotel, but instead we offer a

lot more. Think student accommodation, long and short stay options, gyms, talks, events, rooftop bar and eat & drink escapes as

well as community and coworking spaces. Located in The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, and the UK,

with several new openings on the way, this hybrid hospitality concept may take root in the heart of Europe, but our plans are set

for going global.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Lead and inspire the kitchen (management)team to deliver memorable dining experiences across all outlets and event operations.
Design and continuously evolve menus in collaboration with the Regional Head Chef and F&B leadership.
Oversee day-to-day kitchen operations, ensuring quality, consistency, and efficient service delivery.
Implement and maintain strong kitchen systems for prep, workflow, hygiene, and inventory control.
Manage staffing schedules and team development to ensure productivity and team wellbeing.
Control food costs, labor, and inventory while maintaining menu quality and guest satisfaction.
Implement waste reduction initiatives and track food waste to improve sustainability and efficiency.
Build and maintain strong relationships with suppliers to ensure fresh, local, and sustainable sourcing.
Work closely with events and F&B teams to ensure seamless execution of catering and special events.
Engage with guests when possible, gathering feedback and continuously improving culinary experiences.

WHAT YOU’LL HAVE

Minimum 3 years’ experience as Head Chef or Senior Sous Chef with full responsibility for kitchen operations in a busy,

high-quality environment.

Strong expertise in menu creation, kitchen leadership, and multi-outlet or high-volume operations.
Proven experience leading teams, coaching talent, and fostering collaboration and performance.
Strong financial understanding, including budgeting, food cost control, labour management, and P&L awareness.
A creative mindset with a passion for hospitality and memorable guest experiences.
Calmness under pressure, decisiveness, and a hands-on, solution-oriented approach.
Fluency in English; Dutch language skills are a strong plus, and additional languages are welcome.

WHAT WE OFFER

The opportunity to work at a dynamic, multi-national company. Not just another hotel - we’re a game-changing innovator,

challenging every convention and defining the future.

The chance to learn and grow in your role with the potential for future growth.
Awesome discounts in all our properties in Europe, and not just for you, but also for your friends and family!
A wonderful workplace to call home, full of events, fun colleagues, and all the other amazing salary/benefits stuff.

At The Social Hub, we believe pay should be fair and consistent. That's why we carefully determine your starting salary based on

the role, your assessed proficiency, and our salary framework. We make our best and fairest offer upfront, so we don't negotiate

salaries. Because fairness shouldn’t depend on who negotiates best.

Who you are is how we want you to be. To us, hybrid hospitality goes across the board, from how we service our guests to how we

represent ourselves. Here, everyone belongs, and we welcome people no matter their nationality, gender, age, sexual orientation,

religion, or culture. Your authenticity keeps our team diverse. Come as you are.
