Could you be the most important person
in our kitchen?

Join us as a kitchen
assistant, and you’ll be the person who keeps the wheels turning in our busy
kitchen. You’ll keep it clean and you’ll keep it safe - and you’ll protect the
space so the chefs can create spectacular dishes.

Kitchen life is hard
work, but it’s also a lot of fun.

The team spirit is
brilliant and there’s real pride in helping create something special for
customers.

This is also a great
way to learn about premium catering.

Upham is a business
where kitchen assistants can go on to become chefs or even general managers –
and given our passion for fresh ingredients, there are few better places to
learn the food business.

If you’ve never worked
in a professional kitchen before, don’t worry. Comprehensive training will be
provided.

What do we do?

We own a collection of
beautiful and individual premium pubs across Southern England. Our pubs are in
idyllic settings in country villages and towns, where we are proud to be the
quality local of the area, serving high quality fresh pub food in a cozy pub
ambience. Most of our pubs have some Charming Bedrooms as well. New to our
growing family is Harper’s Steakhouse, a new premium American Steakhouse brand
that we started rolling out last year.

It’s an exciting time to join us!

Upham Inns is growing,
and we want you to grow with us and be part of our success. We’ve been busy
investing in our business and we are seeing some great results. So, we want to
continue to grow our pub family and we are looking to recruit passionate people
into our team

We are looking for great people to join us

Our company is big
enough to support you but small enough to care about your individual needs. We
are a friendly, hands-on team who have a passion for running great pubs. We are
always on the lookout for like-minded people who have the desire to work and grow
with us.
