Dream Big - Join Basta!

Basta is a casual dining restaurant brand, offering great guest experiences in beautifully designed places. With a colourful inspiration from the narrow streets of Amalfi up to the north of Milano, we are proud of our generous food and an authentic Italian hospitality. The concept is a part of Urban Italian Group (UIG) and we are a family of 350 amazing people that keeps growing, serving over 3000 guests daily across our 11 trattorias.

About You & TheRole

This role is for a Head Chef who takes pride in doing things properly and building strong results over time.

You will lead a structured, high-volume kitchen with clear standards and defined ways of working. The days are busy and demanding, and the responsibility is constant, but the satisfaction comes from seeing the kitchen perform consistently, the team grow, and quality stay high even under pressure. Your success shows in calm services, disciplined execution, and a team that knows what good looks like.

Progress here doesn’t come from fast titles or constant change. It comes from consistency, feedback, and owning the operation day after day. Head Chefs who do well enjoy setting direction, developing people, enforcing standards, and taking full responsibility for how the kitchen performs, not just during service but over time.

If you value real ownership, clear expectations, and the feeling of finishing a service knowing the kitchen worked well because of your leadership and structure, this environment will suit you.
