Kitchen Assistant

We are looking for a Casual Kitchen Assistant / Kitchen Porter to join our hardworking and friendly kitchen team.

While this role involves physical work and dishwashing, it also offers a genuine opportunity to start your culinary journey. We are a from-scratch kitchen, and you’ll be working alongside classically trained, skilled chefs who are passionate about food and developing people.

If you’re reliable, team-focused, and keen to learn, this could be the perfect first step into a professional kitchen.

• A strong commitment to training and development within the wider group
• Regular progression opportunities and salary reviews in line with the industry
• Paid staff events twice a year
• A supportive, professional, and enjoyable working environment

We expect our teams to work hard and be committed, but we also believe enjoying your job is just as important.

• Happy to work longer hours during the busy summer months
• Eager to learn, ideally with an interest in food
• A team player with a positive attitude
• Ready to work in a fun, fast-paced, and proactive kitchen

• Cleaning the kitchen to ensure it is ready for the next day
• Maintaining food storage areas, including fridges and freezers
• Receiving deliveries and organising stock correctly
• Washing dishes, cutlery, pots, pans, and kitchen equipment
• Loading and unloading the dishwasher
• Removing kitchen waste and disposing of it safely
• Cleaning and maintaining kitchen equipment such as cookers and food mixers
• Supporting chefs with basic food preparation (washing, peeling, chopping ingredients)
• Assisting the kitchen team as required during service

• No experience necessary – full training will be provided
• A strong work ethic and willingness to learn
• Ability to work as part of a team
• Full-time hours available for the right candidate

If you’re looking to get your foot in the door of a professional kitchen and learn from experienced chefs while being part of a supportive team, we’d love to hear from you.
