The Hoxton, Brussels | Square Victoria Régina 1, 1210 Brussels, Belgium
The Hoxton & Working From_ is making its way to Brussels!
In May 2023, we opened our first hotel and co-working space in the city of Brussels and we’re looking for a Event Sous Chef.
Reporting to the Head Chef, you will shake things up with us as part of the Kitchen team at The Hoxton, Brussels.
The hotel boasts 198 bedrooms of different sizes, a large restaurant and coffee shop, a rooftop restaurant and bar with views across the city and The Apartment (our unique meetings & events concept).
Working From_ brings our unique approach to co-working to Brussels. Our 3rd global location features double height windows, a mixture of memberships and office spaces, open kitchen pantries and transparent policies.
What you’ll do…
- Support the Head Chef in leading a large, dynamic kitchen team
- Think outside the box and drive standards, always striving to find efficient solutions whilst maintaining the quality and integrity of the menu
- Oversee the Meetings & Events kitchen team, working efficiently to maintain the highest quality and standards in line with the company ethos

- You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in chef whites here

- You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get stuff done
- You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once

What's in it for you...
- The opportunity to bring an exciting new hospitality concept to Belgium and have a real impact on its success.
