Head Chef | Herberg de Compagnie | Enkhuizen
Are you a chef who really wants to make your mark at a lively, atmospheric inn on the harbour in Enkhuizen? Then we’re looking for you.
About Herberg de Compagnie
Herberg de Compagnie is Enkhuizen’s premier hospitality concept. A bistro, restaurant, pub and hotel all in one — since 2013. We use a Josper charcoal grill, serve dry-aged meat, and have a menu that changes with the seasons. We also host lively corporate parties and group events for up to 150 people. No boring little kitchen — there’s always something going on here.
What will you do?
As head chef, you’re in charge of the kitchen. You’ll help shape our seasonal menu and ensure a consistently high standard for both lunch and dinner. You’ll work independently, contribute ideas for dishes and ensure your team runs smoothly.
- Creating and preparing a varied seasonal menu (meat, fish, vegetarian)
- Managing and supervising kitchen staff
- Monitoring quality, food safety and cost price
What do we offer?
✅ Freedom in cooking — you’ll be in charge of the creative side of the menu
✅ A high degree of independence — no management that approves every sauce
✅ Good salary — commensurate with experience and level of responsibility
✅ A good work-life balance — we believe in sound planning
✅ Fun company parties — a mix of varied work and brilliant company parties
✅ A permanent role in a close-knit, down-to-earth team in North Holland
What are we looking for?
- Proven experience as a head chef or sous chef
- A passion for quality meat and barbecuing
- You are independent, down-to-earth and committed to quality
- You can manage a small team and keep on top of things even when things get busy
