About Us
Welcome to Croissamosa! For the past year, we’ve been making waves (and mouth-watering food) as a highly successful cloud kitchen. Now, we are taking our next big step and opening our very first physical cafe! We are a brand that loves flavor, creativity, and bringing people together over incredible food.
We are looking for a passionate, skilled Chef to take the helm of our Indian cuisine offerings. If you know your way around a spice rack and are ready to help us transition from a buzzing cloud kitchen to a vibrant neighborhood cafe, we want you on our team!
A Quick Note on Location
Because we are right in the middle of this exciting expansion, interviews and initial hiring will take place at our current cloud kitchen in Hoofddorp.
As for your future kitchen? We are currently finalizing the perfect spot for the new cafe! The final job location will depend on where we sign the lease, but Haarlem is currently our most likely destination. We will keep you in the loop every step of the way!
The Role
We are on the hunt for a culinary artist who lives and breathes authentic Indian cuisine. You will be the master of our Indian menu, ensuring every bite transports our guests straight to the streets of Delhi or Mumbai.
However, our cafe welcomes the world! We need a chef who is a true "spice whisperer"—someone who can deliver uncompromised, authentic Indian flavors, but who also has the skill and finesse to customize and dial down the heat to suit milder palates and serve all nationalities comfortably.
Key Responsibilities
- Cook with Authenticity: Prepare, cook, and present high-quality Indian dishes that stay true to traditional recipes and flavor profiles.
- Customize with Care: Expertly adjust spice levels and flavor intensities to cater to a diverse clientele, ensuring dishes remain delicious even when made mild.
- Menu Development: Collaborate with management to transition our successful cloud-kitchen menu into a vibrant, cafe-ready dining experience.
- Kitchen Leadership: Oversee daily kitchen operations for your station, ensuring efficiency, consistency, and top-tier quality.
- Safety & Hygiene: Maintain strict adherence to all food safety, sanitation, and hygiene standards.
- Inventory Management: Assist in monitoring stock levels, ordering authentic ingredients, and minimizing food waste.
What We’re Looking For
- Experience: Proven professional experience as a Chef, specifically specializing in authentic Indian cuisine.
- Flavor Expertise: A deep understanding of regional Indian spices, marinades, curries, and traditional cooking techniques.
- Flexibility: The culinary intuition to know that "authentic" doesn't always have to mean "spicy." You are happy and willing to adapt dishes for international guests without losing the soul of the meal.
- Adaptability: Excitement to transition with us from a fast-paced delivery model to a customer-facing cafe environment.
- Team Player: A positive, fun attitude. We work hard, but we love what we do and want someone who brings good energy to the kitchen.
Why Join Croissamosa?
- Ground-Floor Opportunity: Be a foundational part of our very first brick-and-mortar cafe.
- Creative Freedom: Bring your authentic recipes and ideas to a brand that values culinary innovation.
- Fun Environment: Join a modern, forward-thinking team that celebrates great food and good vibes.
- Competitive Pay: As per industry standards
