Kitchen Assistant: The foundation of our kitchen
To reach our ambitions and truly earn our place in the hearts of our community, we’re looking for a Kitchen Assistant who takes pride in their work and aspires to grow in a food environment.
What success looks like here:
- Helpful Impactful: You keep the kitchen moving. By managing the wash-up and keeping the environment clean, you are the backbone of a successful service.
- Courageous Ownership: You have the integrity to ensure standards are met, keeping our kitchen safe and sparkling. You see what needs to be done and you do it without being asked.
- Honest Communication: You’re a vital part of the team. You speak up, stay organised, and treat everyone with the same respect you expect in return.
- Resourceful Mindset: You help us protect our planet. You’ll be the champion of our recycling and waste-reduction, knowing that every small action helps our local environment.
- Self-Aware Mindful: You take pride in your role and look out for your teammates, ensuring the kitchen remains a positive and healthy place to work.
- Wholeheartedly Positive: You make the workplace a happy place. If you aspire to cook, we will support you with the training to move into a Commis Chef role when you're ready.
Why you’ll love it here:
- Fair Pay Transparent Tips: Competitive hourly rate plus an equal share of all tips.
- Flexible Rotas: We work with you to ensure your shifts suit your life outside of work.
- Real Food Local Perks: Fresh meals from local produce and discounts across our 5 venues.
- Your Well-being First: Access to the Hospitality Rewards App (Private GP EAP).
- Pathways: If you want to cook, we will show you how. We love promoting from within!
- A Place to Belong: Free parking, epic staff parties, and a team of "really quite lovely" people.
