A renowned pub in one of London’s hottest hospitality postcodes is changing hands, and the ambitious new owners are looking for a chef to lead the food offering.

You’ll head up a small team, working from an open, cosy kitchen and playing a key role in shaping the new identity of the pub. With new branding and a fresh concept currently underway, this is a chance to have genuine input from the very beginning.

The food will be casual, accessible and designed to be enjoyed with a pint- simple, well-executed dishes built around brilliant ingredients. With an array of exceptional suppliers right on the doorstep, a strong focus on the local supply chain feels like a natural fit.

This is a genuinely unique opportunity for someone who is comfortable taking ownership and wants to put their stamp on a food offering. The GM from the previous ownership is staying on, so this isn’t a completely new opening, rather, it’s an established pub getting a fresh identity, a new direction and a fresh pair of eyes.

If you’re an ambitious chef who enjoys having creative input, building a strong team and being part of an exciting new chapter, this could be a very good opportunity.
