Job description

We are looking for an experienced chef de partie to join our established team. The ideal candidate will have experience working in fast-paced and dynamic kitchens but most importantly take pride in the food you create. You’ll be cooking in a kitchen that cares about the food it sends out and will be working with amazing, fresh produce from some of the best suppliers in the country alongside a well-established and tight-knit team led by head chef and co-founder Chris Leach.

We are a nose-to-tail Italian-inspired restaurant focusing on whole-animal butchery, hand-rolled pastas, house-made breads, wood-fired cuts to share, and our own in-house salumeria. Our ethos is minimal waste, sustainable cooking utilizing all parts of the animal and produce possible. We are truly supplier-led with twice daily changing menus. The wine list celebrates low-intervention and classic fine wines from Italy, broader Europe, and further afield in North America, and we have an amari-focused cocktail list.

We relocated to Shoreditch in November 2021 to critical acclaim and were recently recognized:

  1. Number 1 | Time Out Top 100 London Restaurant [2022]
  2. Number 11 | National Restaurant Awards [2022]

We are proud to be an independent business with the two founders coming from a purely chef/hospitality-led background. We invite all to sit at the table with us. We promote a culture of learning and development encouraging independent thinkers.

We offer:

  1. ‘Employee of the Month’ awards with bonus prizes.
  2. ‘Refer a Friend’ bonus.
  3. 50% staff discount at DCCO restaurants.
  4. Cost price wine through our suppliers.
  5. International trips for top performers.
  6. In-house training dedicated to your personal development.
  7. Trips to meet suppliers and producers.
  8. Company donations to charities our staff feel are close to home.
  9. ‘Well Fed and Well Watered’ at work policy.
