Sous Chef

At Fiona, we’re all about vibrant, bold, and flavorful dining experiences inspired by the best of Latin American cuisine. Located in the heart of Amsterdam, our cozy yet energetic space serves up authentic Mexican and Latin dishes that transport our guests straight to the heart of the Americas. Whether it’s zesty tacos, fresh ceviche, or vibrant salsas, we believe in quality ingredients, creative dishes, and unforgettable moments.

The Role

We’re looking for an ambitious Chef de Partie who is ready to take the next step into a Sous Chef role.

You’ll work closely with our Head Chef and become their second in command, helping to lead the kitchen, run the pass during service, and take full responsibility for the kitchen when the Head Chef is away.

This is a great opportunity for a strong CDP who already has solid kitchen experience and is ready to develop their leadership skills and take their first official step into a Sous Chef position.

What You’ll Do

• Work closely with the Head Chef to lead the kitchen team and maintain high standards.
• Act as second in command and take responsibility for the kitchen when the Head Chef is absent.
• Run the pass during busy services, ensuring dishes are prepared and sent out consistently and on time.
• Lead and support the kitchen team during service, keeping communication clear and the kitchen organized.
• Prepare and present high-quality Latin American dishes.
• Take responsibility for your section while supporting the wider kitchen operation.
• Help manage daily prep, stock levels, ordering, and kitchen organization.
• Support the Head Chef with menu execution, food quality, and kitchen procedures.
• Ensure food safety, hygiene, and HACCP standards are consistently followed.
• Help maintain a clean, efficient, and well-organized kitchen.
• Lead by example and help develop more junior members of the kitchen team.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a Chef de Partie or similar senior kitchen role.
• Someone who is ready to take their first step into a Sous Chef position.
• Strong communication and leadership skills.
• Experience running a pass or leading a service is a strong advantage.
• Previous experience working in a professional kitchen in the Netherlands is essential.
• Good knowledge of HACCP and Dutch food safety requirements.
• Experience with ordering, stock control, and kitchen administration in the Netherlands.
• Experience with Latin American cuisine is a plus, but not essential.
• English is required; Dutch and/or Spanish is a bonus.
• A hands-on attitude and the ability to stay calm, organized, and decisive under pressure.
• Passion for quality food and pride in delivering a great service.

What We Offer

• €2,600 – €2,800 gross per month, depending on experience.
• The opportunity to step into your first Sous Chef role with genuine responsibility.
• A clear path to develop your career alongside our Head Chef.
• Staff discounts at Fiona and other RB Horeca locations.
• A dynamic, energetic, and supportive kitchen team.
• The opportunity to work with vibrant Latin American flavors and a growing hospitality group.

If you’re an experienced Chef de Partie who feels ready to step up, lead a team, run the pass, and take responsibility for the kitchen, we’d love to hear from you.

Join us at Fiona and take the next step in your career.
