Independent Working Cook? Then you are more than welcome at one of our many concepts at Schiphol. But only if you prefer to read your role as 'Independent Collaborating Cook', because that is the type of cook we at HMSHost warmly welcome. Such a cook who is always there for teammates even when things get tough.

What will you do as an Independent Working Cook?
Prepare meals yourself. And help starting colleagues to prepare those same meals. Although we use fixed recipes, that requires necessary practice from them. And a pinch of patience from you, because not everyone has the fine cutting work in their fingers immediately. It is up to you to set an inspiring example and continuously monitor quality. Does everything smell, look, and taste the way you think it should? Then the plate may go out with the service. If not, you intervene, kindly pointing out areas for improvement to your colleague. Furthermore, we expect you to keep things clean and safe and to transfer your hospitable, collaborative mindset to all your colleagues.
