About the job
Are you our new Buffet Manager? Cook delicious food and develop yourself as a leader. Are you ready to put on an apron and a frying fork when you prepare everything from the classic salad to the kangaroo?
As Buffet Manager you have an overview of and responsibility for the progression in the kitchen on a given evening and for ensuring the highest hygiene standards. In close cooperation with the kitchen staff you ensure preparation and cooking of both meat, hot dishes and vegetables for the buffet, so we deliver top quality food all evening. You do not need to be a trained chef or have 10 years of leadership experience, because we will train you in food preparation as well as good leadership.
Welcome to restaurant Flammen
You probably already know us. We have grown from being a small inn in Southern Jutland to having 20 restaurants across Denmark. We have won a place in Danes' hearts – and not least their stomachs – with a simple recipe: a well-stocked grill buffet prepared with lots of love and the best ingredients.
We are now looking for our new middle manager. With us you get a huge group of lovely colleagues, who every day provide hundreds of guests with a good, solid meal.
The kitchen and the buffet are your domain
As Buffet Manager you have the sacred duty of preparing the buffet's delightful dishes that make guests' mouths water. You do this before we open at 5 PM. When the kitchen team comes in, you are the one who delegates the day's tasks. But you are also on the floor, where you talk with guests and colleagues.
On a typical shift it is you who
- Prepare and cook both meat, vegetables and the hot dishes for the buffet
- Maintain the highest hygiene standards
- Order and receive goods
- Collaborate on the operation of the kitchen in general
- Guide and lead your staff in the kitchen who arrive during the afternoon
- Coordinate with our Floor Manager, who is responsible for the hosts in the restaurant
- Coordinate and consult with the restaurant's General Manager, who has overall responsibility
It should be fun to go to work
In our restaurants we have debunked the myth that a kitchen must be run with a harsh tone and in a stressful environment. We have replaced the harsh tone with a strong camaraderie and high spirits. You will notice it clearly when you walk into our restaurant.
The food-loving and quality-conscious type
- It is an advantage if you have professional cooking experience, preferably with buffets
- You may have leadership experience from previous jobs, but the most important is good leadership potential that we can build on - you understand how to spread good mood and motivate your colleagues
- You are thorough, outgoing, and confident
- You can speak, read and write Danish
- You are ready for variable working hours
- You can present a criminal record
We offer
- 37 hours per week on average
- A good, healthy and busy working environment with a collective agreement with 3F
- Skilled and eager-to-learn employees
- A challenging daily routine with a fixed concept
- A range of attractive employee benefits
- Start as soon as possible
