Esbern Snare Brasserie & Cocktail Bar is looking for skilled and motivated Chefs / Cooks to join our established restaurant in Kalundborg, Denmark.
Our restaurant in Kalundborg is a well-run, busy operation with a proven concept, experienced ownership and a clear direction. Located right in the middle of Kalundborg's main pedestrian street, we are a lively, pulsing part of the town and a gathering place for its residents. Our purpose is to create a vibrant place for the people of Kalundborg, built on quality ingredients and good food. We are now strengthening our kitchen team and are looking for chefs who want to become part of a structured, professional kitchen and contribute to consistent, high-quality service every day.
Our concept is based on modern Danish cuisine with a Nordic twist, combined with well executed brasserie classics and a varied à la carte menu. We focus on quality ingredients, solid craftsmanship and seasonal cooking, with dishes that combine flavour, comfort and consistency. Our menu includes both classic meat dishes, such as pepper steak, pasta dishes and other popular brasserie favourites.
Alongside our à la carte service, we have a private dining and events room, which you will also be part of. It brings welcome variety to the daily kitchen work, with menus that differ from the standard à la carte and the chance to cook for parties, celebrations and special occasions.
You will be joining a business with an already proven concept, an organised kitchen and a strong operational foundation. The setup is stable and well prepared, giving you a secure framework in which to do great work and develop your craft. Here you also get the freedom to bring your own ideas to life. We are not a place where everything is dictated from above — our chefs and kitchen staff are given the room to develop dishes, contribute to the menu and put their own mark on the food.
We are a serious but friendly workplace with respectful leadership, an organised kitchen environment and a no-drama culture. We believe strong kitchens are built on structure, teamwork and professionalism.
We are looking for chefs / cooks who:
• Have experience working in a professional kitchen
• Can handle prep, mise en place and service in a structured way
• Have experience with à la carte service
• Care about quality, teamwork and consistency
• Thrive in a busy restaurant environment
• Can work independently and take responsibility during service
We offer:
• Full-time employment
• A fixed work schedule
• Weekend work is part of the position
• Salary of approximately DKK 30,000–35,000 gross per month, depending on qualifications and experience
• Five weeks of paid holiday
• Company apartment / accommodation available
• Help with relocation and settling in Denmark
• Possibility of support with moving costs and/or paid accommodation in the first month, by agreement
• Good working conditions in a structured and professional environment
• Staff meals
• Work clothing provided
• Staff discounts
• A stable, established restaurant with a proven concept and an organised kitchen
• The freedom to develop your own ideas and contribute to the menu
• A workplace where English can be used in daily communication
Location
The position is based in Kalundborg, Denmark, in the heart of the city's main pedestrian street. Kalundborg offers a local Danish atmosphere, a charming town centre and a good quality of life.
