Chef wanted for Brede Høker - a place with flavour, meaning and people
In the heart of the historic Brede Værk is Brede Høker - a café and grocery store with big ambitions, a small kitchen and a heart that beats for community, sustainability and food with a story. We run both a café and a community centre and regularly invite the local community in for communal meals, long table dinners and lively events.
We are now looking for a Head Chef who will lead our culinary universe and help unite everyday life and parties, café operations and catering, people and meals.
What you will be responsible for:
- The daily everyday kitchen with café cards and takeaway
- Party menus for everything from weddings and confirmations to corporate events
- Communal dinners and events in the village hall
- Small production tasks where logistics and creativity go hand in hand
- A small, dedicated kitchen team with both experienced professionals and young people in their first job
We imagine that you:
- Experience in a professional kitchen - preferably as a chef or sous chef
- Have an overview and can keep a cool head when the pace picks up
- Desire to plan, lead and be the spoon in hand
- Have an understanding of finance and operations - or the courage to learn it
- Passionate about food, people and the meal as a focal point
- You can be a trained chef, self-taught or something in between - most importantly, you have the desire, skills and energy to co-create a vibrant food scene with heart and attitude.
We offer:
- A unique workplace in beautiful, historic surroundings - with lake views and collaboration with Brede Spisehus
- Influence and responsibility in day-to-day operations
- Salary according to qualifications including pension and healthcare
- A strong backing in Madkastellet - with professional sparring, networking and employee benefits
- A versatile workday with day, evening and weekend shifts
Who are we?
Brede Høker is more than a café - we are a local meeting place, a community centre and part of something bigger. As part of Madkastellet, we are surrounded by professional community and an ambition to serve food with edge, quality and love. For us, it's not about fine dining - it's about genuine hospitality and the desire to give our guests an experience they will remember.
