Job Title: Sous Chef
Location: Sunderland
Reports To: Head Chef / Executive Chef
Employment Type: Full-Time

About Rio:

At Rio, we’re proud to bring the bold flavours and festive spirit of Brazil to life. As a vibrant and authentic Brazilian steakhouse (churrascaria), we specialize in fire-roasted meats carved tableside, a gourmet salad bar, and rich, soulful side dishes — all delivered with warmth and flair. Behind every great dining experience is a great kitchen team, and we’re looking for a skilled and driven Sous Chef to help lead ours.

Position Overview:

As Sous Chef, you will be the second-in-command in the kitchen, supporting the Head Chef in overseeing all culinary operations. From supervising food prep and managing service to training team members and maintaining high standards of quality, cleanliness, and consistency — you’ll be a key leader in ensuring Rio’s food is as unforgettable as the experience itself.

This is an excellent opportunity for a strong kitchen professional with leadership experience who’s ready to step into a high-impact role within a high-energy, culturally rich restaurant.

Key Responsibilities:

Kitchen Leadership & Operations

Assist the Head Chef in managing the day-to-day kitchen operations, ensuring smooth and efficient service.
Supervise line cooks, prep staff, and kitchen porters across all stations — including grill, hot line, salad bar, and desserts.
Lead kitchen operations during Head Chef’s absence.

Food Quality & Execution

Ensure all dishes meet Rio’s standards for taste, presentation, portioning, and temperature.
Maintain consistency across all service periods and menu items, especially in traditional Brazilian preparations.
Monitor prep levels, cooking timelines, and dish accuracy throughout service.

Training & Development

Mentor and train junior chefs in food preparation techniques, sanitation, safety, and presentation.
Support team development through regular feedback, coaching, and hands-on leadership.
Reinforce authentic Brazilian culinary techniques, including grilling, carving, marinating, and plating.

Health, Safety & Hygiene

Enforce all food safety, sanitation, and cleanliness standards in accordance with local regulations and Rio policies.
Monitor HACCP documentation and ensure proper storage, labelling, and temperature control.
Maintain a clean, organized, and hazard-free kitchen always.

Inventory & Cost Control

Assist with ordering, stock rotation, and inventory checks to reduce waste and control food costs.
Ensure proper handling and storage of all food products.
Collaborate with the Head Chef and General Manager to manage supplier relationships and product quality.

Qualifications:

3+ years of professional kitchen experience, with at least 1–2 years in a leadership or sous chef role.
Experience in a churrascaria, Brazilian steakhouse, or high-volume restaurant strongly preferred.
Deep knowledge of grilling, roasting, butchery, and authentic South American flavours.
Strong leadership and communication skills; capable of motivating a team under pressure.
Excellent organizational and time-management abilities.
Knowledge of food safety regulations and best practices (HACCP certification a plus).
Flexible schedule — including evenings, weekends, and holidays.

What We Offer:

Competitive salary + bonus opportunities
Workplace pension
Daily staff meals and generous dining discounts
Opportunities for professional growth and advancement within a growing brand
A dynamic, respectful, and passionate kitchen culture

Lead with Skill. Cook with Heart. Grow with Rio.

If you're a dedicated kitchen professional with a passion for flavour, fire, and leadership, we’d love to welcome you into the heart of Rio.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: £14.00-£18.00 per hour

Benefits:

Company pension
Discounted or free food
Employee discount

Experience:

Chef: 2 years (required)

Work Location: In person
