Butcher at The Meatlovers

At The Meatlovers, the ultimate paradise for meat lovers, we work exclusively with top-quality meat, such as Japanese Wagyu and Spanish Iberico. This is sure to set many a butcher’s heart racing.

Our online shop is growing rapidly in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, which is why we’re looking to expand our team with an experienced and dedicated butcher.

As you’ll be fully dedicated to our TML online shop for the retail market, quality and expertise are of the utmost importance to us! No customer is as discerning as a retail customer. You’ll ensure that every order meets the high quality standards we stand for.

We’re looking for someone with a passion for meat, who prepares our products with precision and care and ensures that every customer is delighted with their order. At The Meatlovers, quality comes first, and that applies to our staff too.

About The Meatlovers

Within a radius of a few kilometres, anyone can find a supermarket or butcher’s that sells meat. Many people therefore buy it to supplement their daily diet. A tasty meatloaf or a leg of lamb alongside the daily vegetables and potatoes. This is why many people opt for the generic ‘steak’ in restaurants. This bland description is exactly what we want to change. Because a steak is just as generic as answering the question ‘What sort of car do you drive?’ with ‘One with four wheels’.

When you know exactly what you’re eating, where it comes from and why it’s the best, you’re not just eating meat. You’re having an experience. This is what we stand for! Not the biggest cuts of meat every day, but truly savouring something special. For true meat lovers, this is what matters most. Our passionate butchers select only the highest-quality meat from all corners of the globe for The Meatlovers. Cuts of meat with unrivalled flavour and texture. Delivered fresh and with care straight to the consumer’s door, because convenience needn’t come at the expense of the highest quality.
