Souschef
We are looking for a talented sous chef to join our team at Hanzō Esbjerg, where the menu brings together the very best of Asian cuisine—ensuring a unique and exciting dining experience with every visit. We joyfully blend street food and gourmet inspirations from across Japan, China, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Laos — and beyond.
We believe that great operations come from strong team spirit — on the floor, in the kitchen, and even in our free time. For us, excellent service is essential and always a team effort. We have clear ambitions for our level of service, and you will receive thorough training to meet those standards.
The job
A day in the role of sous chef will involve leadership and delegation, optimizing schedules, financial management, ordering supplies, and maintaining quality and cleanliness.
While cooking and managing tickets, you’ll also need to motivate the team and brief the floor staff about the evening’s service. You might also need to handle challenges like a dishwasher breaking down or other unexpected issues. Success is delivering an evening with fantastic food, served on time with a positive attitude, and with happy colleagues who feel motivated, inspired, and appreciated in your presence.
There will be regular menu changes to match the seasons, during which you will participate in the development of dishes and recipes, as well as the associated financial planning.

We offer
- You will be part of a social team where camaraderie is paramount, and good humor and unique talents are appreciated. Additionally, you will join a young kitchen team that functions more like a family than colleagues.
- You will be part of the Madklubben family with over 40 restaurants, where you will find strong support to help you grow and become even more successful, as well as a range of monthly social activities across the group.
- At Madklubben, the opportunities are many, as our restaurants include everything from the Latin American Roberta, the French Bistro Royal, the Italian Mamma’s, the Asian Hanzō, and many more.
