At Zoku, we’re not your typical hotel. We’re a community-driven space where people can live, work, socialize, and connect with the city around them. We believe hospitality should feel personal, human, and effortless and that starts with the people on our team. That’s where you come in! 

TELL ME MORE

Life doesn’t become more social than through sharing food. That’s our founding food philosophy and it can be yours too. The food that comes out of our Living Kitchen is fresh, simple, honest, healthy and local. With short-end preparation times, simple ingredients and limited preparation steps, our assortment is incredibly intelligent and facilitates fast service.

As a Chef de Partie, you'll help prepare and plate the dishes coming out of our Living Kitchen, making sure everything looks great and tastes even better.

WHAT MAKES OUR KITCHEN UNIQUE?

• An open kitchen, not a back-of-house hideaway. Cook in a bright space and connect directly with our guests.

• Room to be creative. Bring your own ideas to the table and work with fresh, seasonal ingredients.

• Independence with a strong team around you. Own your section while working closely with the kitchen, front of house and wider Zoku team.

• A kitchen that does things differently. From our rooftop setting to our vegetable-forward approach, we're not your average hotel kitchen.
