Job Description

What's in it for you...

• Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences.
• Competitive salary.
• 29 days holiday (including bank holidays), pension and life insurance.
• Food on us during your shift.
• Training to get you settled into your role with ongoing development that helps you think, make and thrive to set you up for success at work.
• Time off to volunteer with one of our partner charities.
• Hox Hero and Nifty Fifty, our rewards for going the extra mile and living our values.
• An annual diversity and inclusion calendar of events creating opportunities for you to learn, celebrate and make a positive impact.
• Regular team get togethers, from our High Fives to our (pretty special!) team parties – we know how to have a good time!
• The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.
• Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that is shaking things up on the hospitality scene.
• Excellent discounts across The Hoxton and the global Ennismore family.

What you will do…

• Bring delicious flavours to our guests’ tables by running a section in our busy kitchen.
• Nurture and develop the talent of the kitchen team, creating an environment that brings out the best in them and where they can be themselves.
• Make sure things are running without a hitch, orders and deliveries are coming and going as needed, our service is smooth as chipotle butter and our food hygiene standards are sky-high.
• Work with our Executive Chef on ideas and techniques that make our kitchen a creative, ever-changing environment where we’re always looking to make the best food out there.
• Ensure statutory compliance in all food and drink related areas.
• Pay attention to the details to ensure every dish served is as delicious as the one before!

What we’re looking for…

• Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in chef whites here.
• Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done.
• You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
• If we got stuck in a lift together, we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other, and has fun along the way.
• Previous experience working as part of a fast-moving kitchen team with freshness and provenance of ingredients as a key priority.
• Passion for food and fresh ingredients is a given.
• A true passion for creativity whilst maintaining the integrity of our brand standards through the dishes on the menu.
• A natural at leading and managing others, you lead by example and create an environment where your team can be their best self.
