Hey Culinary Talent!

Do you want to work in a restaurant where international street-food influences come together in a vibrant, modern, and welcoming setting? Then this is your chance! At Lucia’s Streetfood & Bar, you are the driving force behind the kitchen, making sure every guest enjoys an unforgettable culinary experience.
What will you do?
• Develop new dishes that strengthen our international street-food vision — from ceviche and bao buns to tacos and mezze platters.
• Lead, motivate, and inspire the kitchen team while working hands-on yourself.
• Ensure the kitchen runs flawlessly, with quality, timing, and HACCP standards as second nature.
• Maintain oversight of stock and ordering so the team is never short on anything.
• Continuously think about new ways to surprise our guests, from breakfast to late dinner.
Why work at Lucia’s Streetfood & Bar?
With us, you’re not a chef who just stands behind the pans — you’re given the space to truly leave your mark on our menu and kitchen. We believe in short lines of communication, personal input, and a culture where hard work and fun go hand in hand.
Whether you have a brilliant idea for a new dish, want to test a special, or collaborate with the rest of the team to complete the guest experience — at Lucia’s, it’s all possible. The atmosphere, international menu, and amazing crew make this a place you’ll love coming to every day.

We are Lucia’s Streetfood & Bar, a vibrant, international food bar in the heart of Bos en Lommer, where street-food inspirations from South America, Southeast Asia, Europe, and the Middle East come together on one menu.
Our restaurant is a place where guests can enjoy everything from early-morning coffee to late-night drinks, from shared dining to festive occasions — all in a warm and lively setting.
Who are you?
• You have experience as a Head Chef or in a similar leadership role in the kitchen.
• You’re hands-on, proactive, and passionate about flavor and quality.
• You’re a motivator who knows how to inspire and organize a team, even during busy moments.
• You communicate clearly (Dutch and/or English) — effective teamwork matters more than perfect grammar.
• You live in (or near) Amsterdam and are flexible in your availability.
What do we offer?
• Salary starting from €3,850 per month (based on 38 hours), depending on experience
