Lunch Chef Canvas

Canvas is a place for day and night. Where dining and dancing go hand in hand. Have breakfast, the first beer of the day or wait for the lights of the night. Be amazed by the overwhelming view, or empty your head on the terrace.

Restaurant Canvas – on the seventh floor of Volkshotel – is looking for an enthusiastic and independently working chef de partie. From early in the morning until late at night, Canvas is a place for breakfast, lunch, dinner and cocktails. A meeting place where many different people cross paths. Do you enjoy working in a creative and international environment and do you have at least two years of relevant work experience? Then you might become our newest colleague.

Are you:

  • Living in Amsterdam (or surroundings)?
  • Stress resistant and at least 18 years old?
  • Flexible, punctual, socially skilled and speaking Dutch and English?
  • In possession of HACCP certification?

This is what your day looks like: 

Some stretching before your shift? No problem. All employees can join in on Volkshotel's weekly yoga classes for free. After some stretching you clock in and take the elevator to the seventh floor. You enter the kitchen where you brief your team of colleagues. Then you do the preparations for the night. You prepare dishes à la minute and make sure that the work environment stays clean. Your goal is to make sure that our guests have a memorable experience in our restaurant. Hanging out after your shift? You are not alone, because working with a view of the city of Amsterdam is beautiful, but enjoying it afterwards with a drink might be even more beautiful. As an employee you also receive a discount on everything (programming, rooms, food and drinks) in the hotel.

What else do we find important?

  • Your communication skills
  • Your perseverance
  • The speed with which you do your work
  • Understanding and implementation of the HACCP

We find it important that our team is as diverse as Amsterdam itself and are building towards a diverse and inclusive workforce. We encourage everyone who recognises themselves in this vacancy to respond.

What do we offer?

It concerns an on-call agreement. Salary is in accordance with the horeca CAO and in accordance with your responsibilities, age and experience. As an employee of Volkshotel you can spend a night in the hotel for free every year. In addition, you can also count on the following: an extra day of vacation, a discount on everything in the building, and the Volkshotel birthday party every year.

Are you the chef de partie we are looking for? Then apply now. Acquisition in response to this advertisement is not appreciated.

Volkshotel is een plek voor alleenstaande moeders. Maar ook voor makelaars en punk rockers. Voor dandy’s en dichters. Afwassers en onderwaterlassers. Voor biologen, arbeiders, nachtvlinders en kunstenaars. Kortom, voor iedereen. Volkshotel creëert ontmoetingen. En de ontmoetingen creëren het Volkshotel. Dit is een hotel van het Volk. Dit is Volkshotel.

Volkshotel is een plek waar veel verschillende mensen samenkomen. Dat is de kracht. Volkshotel probeert zo interessant en prettig mogelijke ontmoetingen te faciliteren.


De houding is functioneel en pretentieloos. Open voor alle mensen die open staan voor alle mensen. Ook toegankelijk in prijs.

Als je het zelf leuk hebt, hebben anderen het ook leuk. We proberen een plezierige omgeving te creëren voor iedereen.
