Job Description

White Rabbit was founded on the belief that no one should have to compromise on good food. With an Italian chef as a co-founder, we've used traditional family recipes and the very best ingredients to create gluten free dishes inspired by Italian classics. We’ve even built our very own gluten free bakery to deliver on our promise.

Whilst pizza is our heartland, we’ve also dedicated ourselves to perfecting the beloved Italian‑inspired dishes that you were missing, like focaccia, pasta and desserts. As we’ve expanded the range of food we make, we’ve remained true to our ambition to craft delicious, high‑quality food that everyone is proud to eat. Our growth has always been driven for and by you, our consumer.

It’s an incredibly exciting time at White Rabbit! We’re growing 4x faster than gluten free meal solutions in the market* & we’ve just re‑launched. With a new & improved range, brand refresh and our latest investment into custom built equipment at our bakery, we’re truly challenging what it means to be gluten free.
