This is an exciting opportunity to join the opening team at Sereno Lounge,our brand-new site,and become part of one of the UK’s most successful restaurant groups.

About the Sous Chef Role

Lounges are pretty special places,and what makes them so special is the brilliant people who work in them.

As Sous Chef you'll be right at the heart of the Sereno Lounge kitchen; supporting your Head Chef,leading the team through each service,and making sure every dish that leaves the pass is something to be proud of. If you love real cooking,care about the people around you,and take pride in doing the small things brilliantly,you'll fit right in.

Lead kitchen shifts with confidence,keeping service smooth,organised and on spec from prep through to the final plate
Be the Head Chef’s right hand — supporting day-to-day operations,stepping up in their absence,and helping the kitchen deliver consistently strong results
Set the tone for high standards on the pass,with a sharp eye for food quality,pace,cleanliness,hygiene and safety
Take ownership of key kitchen routines including prep and par,stock control,waste,orders and effective shift handovers
Coach and support the team around you,helping new and existing chefs build confidence,grow their skills and deliver great food every shift

What You’ll Bring

A passionate cook who takes real pride in fresh ingredients,clean specs,and food that goes out right every single time
Someone the team can count on — you show up,you're on time,and you give it everything when you're there
Someone who leads by example in the kitchen — setting the standard on the pass,supporting the team,and never cutting corners
Confident taking ownership of a shift in the Head Chef's absence,from prep and par to stock management and shift handovers
A team player who helps coach and develop the chefs around them and genuinely wants to see them improve
Experience as a Sous Chef,Junior Sous Chef,or a talented Chef de Partie ready to take their next step
