Requirements

What we're looking for

You are independent and proactive. You see work that needs to be done, set priorities and take action without always waiting for instructions.
You want to help build. You understand that a startup requires flexibility and commitment and you get energy from the chance to help make a difference.
You bring your team along. You communicate clearly, lead by example and address colleagues in a respectful manner.
You are guest-oriented. You ensure a warm welcome and service that makes people want to return.
You keep a cool head. Even during a busy lunch service, you maintain an overview and seek practical solutions.
You work neatly and with an awareness of quality. Hygiene and food safety are a matter of course for you. Knowledge of HACCP rules is a plus.
You speak fluent Dutch and English. Other languages are a welcome addition.

The role

Something new. Something fresh. And plenty of opportunities to help build it.

Fresh sandwiches, fresh salads, smoothies, good coffee and something tasty to go with it: in our hip sandwich bar at a unique location, it is all about taste, quality and a warm welcome.

For this startup business, we are looking for an enthusiastic manager who takes initiative. Someone who loves to roll up their sleeves, motivates the team and helps provide direction to our concept. You see what is needed, come up with ideas and also turn them into action.

What you'll do

Leading the daily operations effectively. You maintain an overview and ensure smooth service, a well-kept establishment and products that excel in taste, freshness and presentation.
Working alongside the team. You prepare sandwiches and other dishes, help behind the counter and welcome our guests with a smile.
Leading and supporting your team. You make clear agreements, onboard new colleagues and ensure a pleasant working atmosphere in which everyone takes responsibility.
Helping to build the concept. You think along about the offering, come up with new sandwiches and specials and bring forward ideas that fit our business and our guests.
Organizing and thinking ahead. You monitor stocks and orders, create the staff schedule and pay attention to efficient operation and limiting waste.
Seeing opportunities and taking initiative. In a startup business, not everything is fixed yet. You enjoy bringing structure, seeking solutions and independently taking on improvements.
