Sous Chef — Osteria Amore Malmö Opening March 2026 • Start February 2026 • Lunch & Dinner Be the engine of a brand-new kitchen. At Amore Malmö, we’re building a modern Italian-inspired restaurant where standards are non-negotiable and egos stay at the door. If you thrive on clean systems, great flavour, and leading by example, this is your move. Why this role - Real influence: Pre-opening tastings, dish development, daily specials. - Leadership: Run the pass, coach the team, set the pace. - Growth: Clear path to Head Chef as we scale. - Balance: Predictable rota across lunch & dinner.

How we work - Zero-ego, solutions-first: We fix problems on the spot and move on. - Taste leads: Flavour, texture and temperature trump everything. - Clean & calm: Tight mise en place, quiet bodies/hot plates, tidy pass. - Standards over shortcuts: Clear specs, labelled containers, verified prep lists. - Teach & be taught: Everyone coaches; everyone learns. What we offer - Competitive salary with predictable scheduling (and two consecutive days off when possible). - Real input on menus and specials, not just execution. - Fair overtime policy and proper breaks. - A genuine chance to step into Head Chef as we expand. You are - Quality-obsessed, calm under pressure, guest-focused. - 3–5+ years in pro kitchens (Italian a plus; curiosity a must). - Clear communicator who lifts the room and keeps standards tight. - Organised, punctual, proud of a clean, efficient station.
