At David Lloyd Clubs, we prioritize our Chef’s mental and physical wellbeing. We ensure a positive work environment — most of our kitchens close by 10pm, and we offer options like compressed hours, split shifts, and fixed schedules to suit every circumstance.

You’ll develop new chef skills, work with great people, and contribute to our food development journey. We use quality ingredients from approved suppliers and source locally where possible. We also listen to your ideas for menu additions through our Chef Forums.

Our club is busy and open 7 days a week. Sometimes it can be hectic, but you’ll be part of a supportive team, never feeling isolated. We need Chefs who are up for the challenge and can help us deliver great food throughout the seasons.
