Chef De Partie (Appetite)
Chef de Partie
Appetite, Singapore
Appetite is looking for a curious and collaborative Chef de Partie to join our kitchen team.
At Appetite, we don’t need the perfect résumé.
We are looking for the curious ones, the career changers, and the people who do not quite fit the usual mould—those who care deeply about food, ideas, and the way a meal can make people feel.
Yes, it’s an open kitchen, but we cook like no one’s watching. Come and learn how to sound like yourself on a plate.
Our menus are created by the whole team and change frequently. Everyone’s opinion counts, and ideas can come from anywhere.
If you think there’s more to cooking than what you’ve experienced so far, this job is for you.
Your role
As Chef de Partie, you will manage a section while contributing to the development and daily rhythm of the kitchen.
You will:
- Organise your section’s mise en place, preparation and service
- Cook with consistency, care and attention to detail
- Contribute ideas to dishes, menus and tastings
- Adapt confidently as the menu develops and changes
- Monitor ingredient quality, storage, stock and waste
- Work closely with the whole team to deliver a smooth service
- Guide and support junior chefs within your section
- Maintain high standards of organisation, hygiene and food safety
Who we are looking for
You may be an experienced Chef de Partie, a Demi Chef ready to step up, or someone whose path into cooking has been less conventional.
You should bring:
- Strong fundamental cooking and knife skills
- Curiosity about ingredients, techniques and ideas
- The ability to organise and manage a section
- Creativity balanced with discipline and consistency
- Composure and adaptability during service
- A collaborative approach and respect for the whole team
- Openness to feedback, experimentation and continued learning
Experience in a fine-dining kitchen is helpful, but it is not everything. We value individuality, curiosity, teamwork and the willingness to contribute.
What we offer- A five-day working week
- Competitive salary based on experience
- Medical insurance coverage
- Birthday leave
- Employee dining discounts across all Unlisted Collection restaurants
- Opportunities for career progression within Appetite and the wider organisation
- The opportunity to contribute directly to frequently changing menus
- Exposure to culinary research, diverse ingredients and global food traditions
- A creative and collaborative environment where every team member has a voice
About Appetite
Appetite brings together a kitchen, record lounge and art gallery to create a different kind of community across boundaries.
Our kitchen is a centre for culinary research and an intimate, experimental dining experience. The menu evolves frequently, drawing inspiration from a global perspective, partner farms and the ideas of the team.
It is a place to cook, question, contribute and develop a voice of your own.
