Chef de Partie – Metafoodies Group, Dubai

Metafoodies Group, the Dubai-based hospitality collective behind Bisou, ALBA Restaurant, ALBA Street, and Himitsu, is hiring a talented Chef de Partie to take ownership of a section within one of its busy, high-standard kitchens. This role suits a chef who is confident running a station independently, delivering consistent quality dish after dish, and coaching junior team members along the way. You’ll work across concepts that range from French-Middle Eastern fusion at Bisou, to Pan-Asian and European flavors at ALBA and ALBA Street, to Himitsu’s refined Japanese small plates. If you have solid experience in a fast-paced professional kitchen and want to develop your craft within a group known for creativity and mentorship, this role is for you.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of an assigned section (e.g. grill, sauce, pastry, or cold kitchen).
• Prepare and execute dishes to the brand’s exact recipes and presentation standards.
• Coordinate with other sections to ensure smooth, timely ticket flow during service.
• Train and guide Commis Chefs working within the section.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and well-stocked station at all times.

Requirements

• At least 2 years of experience as a Chef de Partie or similar station-chef role.
• Proven expertise in a specific cuisine relevant to Bisou, ALBA, or Himitsu’s menus.
• Good knife skills and knowledge of proper food handling and storage.
• Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced, high-pressure kitchen environment.
• Team-oriented attitude with a willingness to learn and take feedback.
