Do you like sushi, speed and taste? Then we are looking for you!

At Sumo you work in the middle of the bustling Markthal, one of the most iconic, busy and colorful places in the city. Thousands of visitors pass by here every day: tourists, gourmets, regular guests and curious gourmets. For you as a chef, this means plenty of energy, a high pace and every service is a new challenge. No day is the same, and boredom simply does not exist here.

For us, everything revolves around fresh fish, beautiful colors on the plate and satisfied faces at the table. We combine Japanese and Asian cuisine in a mix of classics and surprising creations: from crispy tempura and smoky yakitori to perfectly rolled maki and nigiri, prepared with love, craftsmanship and a wink.

As an independently working chef, you are the beating heart of our kitchen. You effortlessly run your own shift, keep an overview during the busiest moments and ensure that every dish that leaves the pass is of top quality. You think about new dishes, specials and seasonal menus and enjoy sharing your knowledge with your colleagues. One day you are standing behind the sushi bar with your knife in your hand, the next day you are stir-frying, frying or grilling.

What will you find with us? A close-knit, international team with humor, short lines and room for your own input. Working with top products, a menu you are proud of and colleagues who are just as crazy about food as you are. Moreover, you are in a unique location: the Markthal is easily accessible by public transport (metro, tram and bus stop almost in front of the door) and by car, with parking nearby. Ideal, whether you come from the city itself or travel from further afield.

Ready to make every day a little better with us, right in the heart of the Markthal? Then apply and who knows, you might soon be standing next to us behind the pass.
