Chef de Rang - Bar Belle

WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE PART OF THE OPENING TEAM?
JOIN US AS CHEF DE RANG AT BAR BELLE!
(start date March 2026)

ABOUT THE RESTAURANT

Our newest destination in Hotel Nassau Breda is a place made for sharing, savouring, and slowing down. Inspired by Riviera cuisine and infused with Parisian classics, bold Basque flavours, and Venetian bites, it’s more than just a restaurant; it’s a social hotspot.

Imagine warm lighting over rustic wood, laughter around shared plates, and guests lingering over dessert and wine. Here, we celebrate fresh, seasonal produce, vibrant flavours, and a menu designed to be enjoyed together in a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere.

THE POSITION

We are looking for an enthusiastic and professional Chef de Rang to join our opening team at Bar Belle. As Chef de Rang, you are the face of the restaurant for your section, creating unforgettable moments through genuine hospitality, attention to detail, and seamless service. You’ll guide guests through the menu, deliver high-level table service, and ensure that every experience feels personal and effortless.

YOUR KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Deliver elegant, attentive, and personalised service to guests in your section

• Guide guests through the menu and beverage selection, with confident product knowledge

• Coordinate the service flow between kitchen and front of house

• Handle guest requests and feedback with professionalism and warmth

• Ensure tables are set, serviced, and presented according to Bar Belle standards

• Take orders and process them accurately in the POS system

• Support and train Commis/Runner level colleagues where needed

• Maintain a clean, organised, and guest-ready environment at all times

• Uphold health, safety, and hygiene regulations

• Contribute ideas on service style, guest experience, and upselling opportunities

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

You are proactive, guest-focused, and passionate about great food, beautiful wine, and genuine hospitality. You describe yourself as a real team player and are excited to put Bar Belle on the map in Breda. You also recognise yourself in the following:

• Experience as Chef de Rang or in a similar front-of-house role

• Strong passion for restaurants, gastronomy, and service

• You enjoy creating experiences, not just serving plates

• You are representative, positive, and confident with guests

• You speak Dutch & English (any additional language is a bonus)

• Social Hygiene certificate is a plus

HOW YOU’LL DO IT

• With a warm, authentic, and service-minded personality

• Thinking beyond your section — understanding the restaurant, hotel, and guest journey

• With a driven, detail-oriented, and quality-focused mindset

• By bringing high energy, humour, and fun to the team
