Job description
As a floormanager at Bouillon d’Amsterdam, you are in charge of the service together with the team. You ensure that service, atmosphere, and speed are on point, every shift. You lead by example, manage the service team, coordinate with the kitchen, and maintain quality at the table.
You combine overview with confidence: you dare to make decisions, adjust when needed, while staying close to your guests and team. A busy evening, change in service flow? You remain calm, clear, and positive.
What will you do?
You are responsible for the flow of your shift: from opening to closing or from pre-service to the last coffee
You manage the service team on pace, quality, appearance, and hospitality
You provide a clear briefing and debriefing of the shift
You oversee the guest experience: you walk around, make contact, resolve complaints, and surprise where possible
You keep track of reservations, flow and restaurant occupancy
You work closely with the manager and assistant manager on planning, task division and daily goals
You pay attention to details: clean floor, neatly set tables, clear communication between bar, kitchen, and service
You actively work on the floor: you are literally among your team
Who are you?
You have experience in service and have previously held a supervisory role (e.g., as a shift leader, senior service staff, or floormanager)
You thrive in a busy environment and always maintain an overview
You can communicate clearly and make decisions decisively
You are visible on the floor: open, approachable, and not afraid to get your hands dirty
You have an eye for people: you understand what a guest needs and what a colleague needs
You speak at least Dutch and English; other languages are a plus
You are flexible, available in evenings and weekends
What do we offer you?
Working in a new, ambitious concept in an iconic venue in the heart of Amsterdam (Die Port van Cleve)
The opportunity to truly build a team, work method, and culture
A role with responsibility and a lot of guest interaction
Competitive salary, depending on experience, plus tips
Room for growth, for example towards (assistant) manager
Training in product knowledge, service, and leadership
An open, direct, and pleasant working atmosphere with Amsterdam humor and French flair

More about Bouillon:
Bouillon d’Amsterdam is the table of the city. French comfort food with Amsterdam bravado, in the center and at a fair price. Inspired by the Parisian bouillons, but with Amsterdam buzz. Glasses clink, plates keep coming, the service is fast-paced with a wink. Laughter, sharing, and living are encouraged here.
From the iconic location Die Port van Cleve, we are building a timeless restaurant where simplicity, technique, and service come together. We cook with a concise menu that moves with the season and the rhythm of the day. From the first coffee to the late bottle of wine: always something delicious on the table, always lively, always room for a spontaneous “will you stay for one more?”
Our foundation is clear:
Accessible: Food and hospitality without barriers. Everyone is welcome. Accessibility for us means fair prices, an open attitude, and always a seat at the table. And truly delicious. Good food that speaks for itself. Recognizable dishes full of flavor: no trendy fuss, no tricks, but timeless and authentic, made with craftsmanship and served with pride.
Confidence: Amsterdam courage with French flair. Self-assured, full of character, and straightforward, yet always warm and welcoming. A team that dares to speak, laugh, and be themselves.
Connection: Humanity in every encounter. An atmosphere that invites and brings people, flavors, and stories together. Homely and lively, whoever joins, eats along. We look out for each other: from regular guest to staff, from tourist to local.
