You love real cooking. We love real cooking. Customers love real cooking. It's a no[1]brainer so you wonder why so many other places don't do it. We do it, and you'll be doing it with us - fresh, customer led, and with high-quality ingredients.

• Christmas and Boxing Day off!
• The best staff party - Loungefest
• Emotional and practical support via the Licenced Trade Charity
• Power over your pay with Wagestream
• Company pension scheme
• Long service awards
• Great opportunity for personal development and career progression in a fast-growing business

What you'll bring:

• You are probably an existing Junior Sous Chef or an experienced Chef that is looking to take the next step in their career.

• Strong knowledge of best practice when it comes to all things Allergens, kitchen essentials and Food Safety.
