Looking for a chef that wants to train as a butcher

Full-time, Part-time

sebastian & Co

Sebastian & Co. Fine Meats is looking for a chef, cook, or food professional who wants to build a career in traditional butchery.

This isn't simply a retail position. We are a working butcher shop where fresh sausages, charcuterie, burgers, skewers, roasts, sandwiches, and seasonal products are made in-house, and customer service is an essential part of the craft.

We're looking for someone who enjoys working with their hands, takes pride in quality, and wants to learn every aspect of the trade.

About Us

Sebastian & Co. is an independent butcher shop with locations in Downtown Vancouver and West Vancouver. We focus on premium meats, traditional craftsmanship, and knowledgeable customer service.

Every day is different. You might spend the morning cutting steaks and preparing displays, the afternoon making fresh sausages or tying roasts, and later helping a customer choose the perfect cut for dinner. We believe a great butcher understands both the product and the people buying it.

What We're Looking For

  • Experience as a chef, cook, butcher, or in food production

  • A genuine interest in learning traditional meat cutting

  • Strong communication and customer service skills

  • A positive attitude and willingness to learn

  • Reliable, organized, and able to work well with a team

  • Comfortable working in a physically demanding environment and lifting up to 50 lbs

  • Fluent English

Previous butcher experience is welcome but not required . We are happy to train someone with a strong culinary background who is motivated to learn.

What You'll Do

  • Learn meat cutting and portioning techniques

  • Prepare fresh sausages, burgers, skewers, roasts, and other value-added products

  • Assist with charcuterie and specialty production

  • Serve customers and provide cooking advice and product recommendations

  • Maintain attractive displays and a clean, organized workspace

  • Follow food safety and sanitation standards

  • Contribute ideas for new products and seasonal features

  • Help wherever needed to keep the shop running smoothly

What We Offer

  • Competitive wages based on experience

  • Hands-on training from experienced butchers

  • Opportunities to develop advanced butchery and charcuterie skills

  • Staff discounts

  • A supportive team that values craftsmanship, curiosity, and continuous learning

  • Opportunities for long-term growth within the company

We're looking for someone who wants to become more than a meat cutter. We want someone who enjoys making things, solving problems, serving customers, and taking pride in producing exceptional food.

How to Apply

Please drop off your resume in person at either location:

Downtown Vancouver
1299 Howe Street

West Vancouver
2425 Marine Drive

Or apply through this ad!

We look forward to meeting you.
