Rooftop Head Chef

As our Rooftop Head Chef in Glasgow, you'll lead our kitchen team to create exceptional dining experiences. As the top kitchen leader, you'll oversee menu creation, food preparation, and staff management while ensuring smooth service. Working closely with the Rooftop General Manager, you'll drive quality, creativity, and operational excellence while meeting business goals.

In Case You Don’t Know Who We Are:

Known for being the rule breakers in hospitality, TSH is a fun, creative and inspiring environment where everyone can work, stay, learn and play and most importantly – be themselves. As an employer we look, act and think like a hotel, but instead we offer a lot more. Think student accommodation, long and short stay options, gyms, talks, events, rooftop bar and eat & drink escapes as well as community and coworking spaces. Located in The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, France and Spain with several new openings on the way, this hybrid hospitality concept may take root in the heart of Europe, but our plans are set for going global.

What You’ll Do

• Team Leadership: Lead your kitchen staff by recruiting and onboarding talented individuals, providing training, and creating a collaborative, diverse, and inclusive environment. You offer regular coaching to maintain excellence.
• Menu Development: Create seasonal menus featuring local ingredients that reflect our brand identity, sustainability commitments, and meet guest expectations.
• Kitchen Operations: Oversee food preparation and service, maintaining consistent quality and ensuring compliance with food safety standards.
• Financial Management: Control food and labour costs, manage inventory effectively, minimize waste, and build strong supplier relationships to optimize financial performance, while still upholding menu quality and integrity.
• Guest Experience: Deliver consistently excellent dishes and incorporate customer feedback to refine and improve our offerings.
• Collaboration: Work with the Group Executive Chef and other departments to support the broader food and beverage strategy, special events, and culinary innovation.

Who You Are:

• Minimum 3 years as a Head Chef or Senior Sous Chef in a high-paced, high-quality kitchen (rooftop, destination restaurant, or similar venue preferred).
• Proven ability to build, train, and manage a high-performing team.
• Strong background in kitchen systems, inventory control, and workflow management.
• Experience implementing new processes to enhance efficiency and guest satisfaction.
• Passion for using fresh, seasonal ingredients and developing innovative, brand-aligned menus.
• Ability to manage budgets, control costs, and optimize financial performance without compromising quality.
• Fluent in English (additional languages are a plus).

What We Offer

• The opportunity to work at a dynamic, multi-national company. Not just another hotel - we’re a game changing innovator, challenging every convention and defining the future.
• The chance to learn and grow in your role with the potential for future growth.
• Awesome discounts in all our properties in Europe and not just for you, but also for your friends and family!
• A wonderful workplace to call home, full of events, fun colleagues and all the other amazing salary/benefits stuff.

Who you are, is how we want you to be. To us, hybrid hospitality goes across the board, from how we service our guests to how we represent ourselves. Here, everyone belongs, and we welcome people no matter their nationality, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion or culture. Your authenticity keeps our team diverse. Come as you are.
