Who Are You?
- You are an experienced chef with a passion for healthy, high-quality cuisine.
- Experience in professional cycling or another elite sports environment is a strong advantage.
- You have a strong interest in sports nutrition and are eager to continuously expand your knowledge.
- You are well organized, able to work independently, and remain composed during demanding race periods.
- You are flexible and willing to travel frequently.
- You are a team player who works with discretion, professionalism, and a solution-oriented mindset.
- You communicate fluently in English. Knowledge of Dutch and/or French is considered an asset.

What Do We Offer?

You will become part of a multidisciplinary performance environment where expertise, collaboration, and continuous improvement are at the heart of everything we do.
You will have the opportunity to:
- Contribute every day to performances at the highest international level.
- Work alongside elite athletes and leading performance specialists.
- Travel to the world's biggest cycling races and training camps.
- Be part of a professional environment where quality, innovation, and passion go hand in hand.
