Job description

Role: Senior Sous Chef
Company:Camm & Hooper
Reports into:Head Chef
Location: London
Contract Type: Full Time, Permanent (48 hours per week)

Who we are:

At Camm & Hooper, we are reimagining what hospitality can be - one plate, one moment, one unforgettable experience at a time. We’re reimagining hospitality as a creative hospitality studio, and our Broadwick Venues portfolio, spanning everything from 20-guest VIP dinners to 300+ immersive brand activations is the playground. Each event is a unique narrative expressed through mood, tone, texture, and taste. We don’t want stylists. We want culinary disruptors who can craft emotion, meaning, and memory through food.

What we’re looking for:

We’re not looking for another events chef. We’re on the hunt for a taste architect - someone who builds bold, memorable flavour experiences, not just meals. Someone who sees food as both fuel and theatre, who thrives on the energy of scale, speed, and storytelling, and who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and lead from the front.

• A Senior Sous Chef who’s a leader, collaborator, and innovator, not just someone who can deliver volume, but someone who can deliver vision.
• Someone who thinks about flavour architecture: the rise and fall of a dish, the emotion of a plate, and the rhythm of a menu.
• A chef who’s at home in a warehouse one day and a heritage venue the next—agile, resourceful, and grounded in precision.
• A creative partner who works closely with our Culinary Director, Food Stylist & Operations team to craft culinary journeys that are daring and unforgettable.
• Someone who’s not afraid of pushing boundaries or challenging a brief—in fact, they thrive on it.

What you’ll be responsible for:

• Lead from the front on-site across our Broadwick Venues, overseeing event delivery with excellence and flair.
• Collaborate on creative menu development that prioritises seasonality, sustainability, and bold storytelling.
• Support in building operational excellence, mentoring junior chefs and setting the tone for high standards across the kitchen brigade.
• Innovate food presentation approaches, working with the wider creative team to deliver experiences that are as beautiful as they are delicious - without ever compromising on substance.
• Be obsessed with flavour, obsessed with detail, and obsessed with creating awe.
• Champion operational discipline and cost control without sacrificing creativity.
• Thrive under pressure and find opportunity in every challenge.

You’ll need to have:

• Experience in delivering premium events or high-end restaurant service at scale, ideally across diverse venues.
• A strong creative sensibility and passion for flavour innovation.
• Leadership experience with a proven ability to manage, train, and inspire a team.
• A deep understanding of seasonal produce, menu engineering, and modern food trends.
• A hunger to shake things up and reimagine what events catering can be.
• Comfort working within both structured systems and creative chaos.

Why join Camm & Hooper?

Because we’re rewriting the rules of event hospitality.

Because we believe in taste over trend, flavour over flash, and impact over imitation.

Because here, your ideas matter, and your craft will help shape the next chapter of Camm & Hooper’s story.

You’ll be part of a growing, visionary team that’s changing how London experiences food, creativity, and celebration.

You’ll have the space to push yourself, the mentorship to grow, and the opportunity to create moments people will never forget.

If you’re ready to be more than just a chef,

If you want to help create a movement, not just meals,

Then we want you.

Come roll up your sleeves and build the future with us.
