SOUSCHEF
Are you passionate about your craft and capable of leading a team of chefs? Then join the team at Madklubben Aarhus today.
On the edge of the harbor, at the end of the Åen, right by Dokk1, at the doorstep of the light rail, and in the heart of the city, you’ll find restaurant Madklubben Aarhus. In the city’s beautiful Toldkammer, designed by Hack Kampmann and over the years home to everyone from ship-loving warehouse workers to architecture students and festive students, we have created a dining venue shaped by and for Aarhus. Madklubben’s mission is to serve excellent food at extraordinarily reasonable prices. We aim to be the alternative to dining at home – Aarhus’ natural and atmospheric gathering spot on both Tuesdays and Saturdays.
The menu offers a mix of classic Danish dishes and favorite foods from around the world, served by fresh and charismatic young people who make it their mission to turn the experience into a show. Each day, our staff, like stars, performs the restaurant industry’s best show, ensuring that every guest leaves Madklubben inspired to return.
Our manifesto is titled “Honesty Tastes Best,” and we strive to live by this every single day. This means you’ll find a workplace where we have fun and treat each other with respect. The company is in constant development, and therefore, opportunities are many. If you haven’t already visited us, we are known as the place that serves excellent food and great wines at unusually reasonable prices. We are located in delightful surroundings, and our guests play an active role in the meal.
