Vacancy sommelier

For our family business on the Amsterdam canals we are immediately looking for an enthusiastic sommelier. Are you the one we are looking for?

As a Sommelier you are the wine specialist of Restaurant Ambassade. You advise your guests which wine goes best with their dish and you can tell about it with passion. You have an unerring sense of your guests’ culinary needs. As a true wine lover you keep track of all developments in the culinary world. You like to work independently, but you are also a team player who likes to share knowledge with the team.

“Restaurant Ambassade is a real family business, and you can feel that.”
– Lars Vink

You are also co-responsible for our various wine and food arrangements and their renewal. Our changing wine list contains mainly French wines, complemented with Old and New World wines. You will be working with a nice extensive collection, of which about 20 wines can be ordered by the glass. Whether the wine is hearty, light, fruity or round; what is certain is that we have selected gastronomic wines that are true to the region & terroir. Beautiful wines for a fair price. In this way we try to keep our wines accessible for our guests.

Furthermore, in cooperation with the F&B manager, you are responsible for orders, stock control and contact with suppliers.

Don’t feel like going home after the shift? At the end of your working day you and your colleagues enjoy a closing drink.

Do you have extensive experience in the wine world and are you in possession of a thorough wine education (WSET 3/SVEN), and never stop learning? Do you have experience in high-end hospitality and are you able to create a pleasant working atmosphere with your colleagues? Is your goal, together with our F&B team, to give 100% every day to offer our guests an unforgettable experience? Then apply immediately!
