Second Chef

The role This isn’t just cooking food it’s about creating moments.

As a Sous Chef, you’re right at the heart of the action. You’ll bring the energy to the kitchen, help set the standard, and make sure every dish that leaves the pass is something to be proud of.

Our kitchen has three sections:
Pizza, Pasta and Grill, so there’s always something new to learn and get stuck into. You’ll be hands‑on across the sections, supporting the Head Chef, leading the team during service and making sure everything runs smoothly.

Don’t worry if you don’t know every section already we’ll teach you everything you need to know. Bring the right attitude, a passion for great food and the confidence to take responsibility, and we’ll help you develop your skills and smash it in the kitchen.

Think great food, high standards, a fast‑paced kitchen and a team that knows how to have fun while getting the job done.
No egos. No shouting. Just real people working together, supporting each other and taking pride in every plate that leaves the kitchen.
We work hard, keep the energy high and look out for each other because when the kitchen is buzzing, the whole restaurant feels it.

We’re building a team that reflects the world around us. All backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives are encouraged – it’s what makes us stronger.

Our culture is shaped by three core values:
Creativity – always looking for better ways to do things;
Ownership – taking responsibility and making things happen; and Collaboration – working together to achieve shared success. If these values resonate with you, we'd love to hear from you.
