Head Chef​/Kitchen Manager

Can you cook up a storm? It is our talented Chefs who are responsible for delivering mouth-watering menus filled with our customers' favourites, including juicy burgers, skewers, steaks, fish and chips, sandwiches, wraps, and more. We are all about relaxed all-day dining done well and with quality ingredients. As our Head Chef and Kitchen Manager, you own your kitchen. You will recruit, mentor, and inspire your brigade to deliver good food done great, while actively driving the commercial strategy and protecting your bottom line.

We do hospitality differently. No ego, no drama. We back our teams to take ownership and grow their careers. We show up to make a genuine difference, caring deeply about our impact on guests, the community, and each other.

We trust you to handle:

• The Food: Delivering mouth-watering menus. You will ensure dishes are cooked to exact company specifications, safely and consistently, because relaxed dining still requires absolute precision.
• The Brigade: Leading from the front. You will coach and motivate your team, replacing hiring guesswork with quantifiable application velocity metrics to recruit a resilient, high-performing kitchen staff.
• The Commercial Engine: Protecting the Gross Profit. You will review wage costs using TnA and manage stock to precise par levels to hit your financial targets.
• The Standards: Owning the audit. You will drive an absolute obsession with food safety and ensure strict EHO directives are met without compromise.

We do not micromanage. We believe in Ownership & Integrity, giving you the autonomy to make decisions on the fly and run your kitchen your way.

• Health: Complimentary Health & Wellness Membership for you and a friend (worth £1,500), mental health days, and an Employee Assistance Programme.
• Stays & Food: Discounted stays from £35, 50% off at the Pub & Grill, and 30% off Starbucks.
• Extras: Salary drawdown via Wagestream, High Street discounts, Electric car scheme, and your birthday off guaranteed.
