Job description

Overview

Are you ready to re-ignite your fire and build a career in the kitchen? Join our vibrant and dynamic kitchen team as a Kitchen Porter with Chilled Pubs.

Whether you’re an existing kitchen porter looking for a change in environment, or you’re new to hospitality, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

Who are we?

Chilled Pubs started in 2007 when Loren and Richard purchased the Bulls Head in Repton. Now with 7 sites, over 500 employees, an industry-leading food & drink menu, and a distinctive culture, we are growing fast and aim to reach a portfolio of 20 pubs in the near future.

We are passionate about finding superstars who live and breathe our values and ensure guests are wowed by the Chilled Pub experience.

What the role entails

• Your main responsibility will be washing dirty dishes, kitchen utensils and cooking equipment. Our pubs are busy places, so you will need to enjoy staying active and on your feet for long periods.
• Complete general cleaning duties in the kitchen and yard, including emptying bins, cleaning surfaces, and mopping floors.
• You may be asked to support the kitchen team with basic tasks such as stock rotation and unpacking deliveries; some heavy lifting will be required.

Who we are looking for

• Someone who aligns with our values: warm, friendly, and genuinely guest-obsessed.
• Someone who understands the importance of teamwork and offers support when needed.
• Someone who enjoys being busy and can work at pace to manage high volume.
• Someone who is comfortable standing for long periods and undertaking manual duties.
• Someone who shares our passion for Chilled Pubs and is excited to be part of our team. If you’re interested in becoming a chef, we would love to train you internally.
• Someone with a flexible approach to work; evenings and weekends are required.

What’s in it for you

• A competitive, industry-leading salary (dependent on experience).
• 28 days paid holiday.
• Christmas and New Year’s Day off every year.
• Your birthday is a paid day off.
• Up to 70% discount across all Chilled Pubs.
• A sociable team where you’ll become part of the family.
• Instant access to Wage-Stream (salary flexibility).
• Monthly incentives, annual awards, and company-wide competitions for experiences and events.
• Pension scheme (opt-in after 3 months).
• Career development opportunities through in-house or external training, and our Apprenticeship partner (Lifetime).
• Wine Club with discounts for employees.

At Chilled Pubs, Inspiring Togetherness is a core value. We are focused on being the best and live our four core values across the business to lead in hospitality. If this sounds like you, we’d love to receive your application. We’re proud to have many employees with long tenures and a real family feel.
