About the Position
๐ฝ Opportunity
Madras Curry House is hiring three independent chefs at once. That's a rare setup for a small restaurant, and it means you'd be one of a trio sharing the pass rather than a lone cook stretched thin. The kitchen cooks traditional Indian dishes from authentic ingredients across lunch and dinner. Pay follows the Dutch hospitality collective agreement (CAO), so your salary sits on a published, regulated scale rather than a handshake figure.
๐จโ๐ณ Role โ Independent Working Chef (Chef-I) ร3
Prepare lunch and dinner dishes on your own, start to finish
Handle mise en place: cutting, mixing, portioning
Own the quality, taste and presentation of every plate
Apply HACCP and food-safety standards
Manage stock: ordering, receiving and checking deliveries
Clean and maintain equipment and workstations
Pitch recipe ideas, menu updates and smarter kitchen workflows
Supervise and support the kitchen assistants
๐ ChefJobs Abroad Analysis
Veldhoven is a quiet, green town on the edge of Eindhoven in North Brabant. Life there is cycle-friendly and unhurried, and the city is close enough for evenings out. That makes this a solid landing spot for a chef who wants a first foothold in the Netherlands without big-city rents or chaos. The role itself is a genuine step up from line cook. "Chef-I" is a recognised Dutch grade for chefs who can run a section unsupervised, and this one includes oversight of assistants. The main unknown is sponsorship. If you need a work permit, confirm that before anything else.
