We’re looking for talented Commis Chefs to join us at HUX Bar & Bistro.
HUX is a modern neighbourhood bistro in downtown Halifax, with a food direction built around modern French cooking with British sensibility.
Ideally, you’ll have experience in a UK gastropub, neo-bistro or modern European kitchen, or at least a genuine passion for that style of cooking and a desire to develop your skills.
We’re also launching a new weekend brunch menu, so Saturday and Sunday daytime availability is particularly important for this role.
The Role
Working as part of our kitchen team, you’ll support the preparation and delivery of HUX’s menus while developing your skills in a professional, quality-driven kitchen.
Responsibilities include:
- Preparing and cooking dishes to HUX recipes and standards
- Supporting your section through prep and service
- Working across our dinner and new weekend brunch menus
- Maintaining excellent standards of presentation and consistency
- Ensuring your section is clean, organized and properly stocked
- Following food safety, hygiene and temperature-control procedures
- Assisting with deliveries, storage, prep and closing duties
- Working closely with the wider kitchen and front-of-house teams
- Minimizing waste and treating ingredients with care
What We’re Looking For
- Some professional kitchen experience is preferred
- Experience in a gastropub, bistro, French or modern European kitchen would be an advantage
- Availability for Saturday and Sunday brunch service
- A genuine interest in cooking and learning
- Good knife skills and basic kitchen fundamentals
- Strong organization and attention to detail
- Ability to work calmly and efficiently during busy services
- Reliable, punctual and comfortable working as part of a small team
- A positive attitude and willingness to learn from more experienced chefs
Why HUX? This is a good chance for an ambitious junior chef who wants to develop beyond simply working a station.
You’ll gain experience across French and British-influenced bistro cooking, weekend brunch and seasonal menu development, working with a team that cares about ingredients, technique and consistency.
We’re looking for people who want to learn, contribute and grow with HUX.
Please apply through Indeed with your resume, your current availability and a short note telling us about your kitchen experience and the kind of food you’re interested in cooking.
