Head Chef at Bunk Utrecht

At Bunk, our buzzing restaurant is packed morning to night. By day, we serve accessible dishes for every diet, taste and appetite. By night, we turn up the volume with elevated, shareable dishes full of creativity and fresh, seasonal ingredients, sourced locally where we can. That’s how we do good while tasting great. ABOUT YOU Well of course you know good food. But you know that a good head chef’s leadership is more about connection and collaboration than cuisine. From breakfast to dinner, you make sure the kitchen runs smoothly so that each guest has a memorable experience. You’re organised, communicative, calm under pressure and always present and ready to coach and inspire your team. When it comes to your day-to-day, you’re not just managing costs, recruitment, schedules and equipment – you’re a part of the hotel team’s heartbeat. ABOUT BUNK In Bunk’s monumental churches, you’ll find a cross between a hostel, a hotel, a restaurant, a coworking space, an art gallery, a cultural event venue, a traveler’s gem and a local favourite. Far from your typical hospitality concept, then. Our brand is built around personality, connection and stories and our team is made of real people from all walks of life. Rather than extensive experience, what our team has in common is a love for others, and for helping them, whether that be through pointing them towards the best experiences in our cities or creating the best experience on their plates. ABOUT BUNK UTRECHT Just a short walk away Central Station, we’ve converted Utrecht’s Westerkerk into a buzzing hub for people from near and far alike. On a typical day, our monumental church hall is filled with diners enjoying dishes from all over the world prepared with local ingredients (with a Bunk twist, of course), flex workers cracking out the final details of their projects, backpackers catching some good sleep on a budget in our pods, culture vultures capitalising on our free events and curious travellers heading out on adventures before making their way back to their rooms.
