Job description

Description

About the Roles We’re on the lookout for Commis Chefs to join us in one of the UK’s most unique Papa John’s venues—one of only two restaurant-style Papa John’s locations in the country offering a full dine-in and buffet experience. This isn’t your typical takeaway—it’s a vibrant kitchen where you’ll help deliver pizza perfection moments as part of the holiday magic.

You’ll be guaranteed 35 hours per week, working to a rota of 5 days out of 7 which will include weekends. Our shifts require flexibility, they range from early starts at 7am to late finishes - especially when you're scheduled in our Papa John's pizza van, which stays open until 4am on our Big Weekenders. Don't worry though, you wont always be in the van! Your role will include a mix of shifts across both the restaurant and the van, giving you variety and the chance to work in different parts of the team.

And if you’re relocating, live-in accommodation may be available to help you settle in quickly and comfortably, subject to a DBS check.
