Pride of the Peaks – New Mills
We’re looking for a reliable, enthusiastic and hardworking Kitchen Assistant to join the team at Pride of the Peaks as we prepare to open our doors.

The role
As Kitchen Assistant, you’ll support our Chef with the day-to-day running of the kitchen, helping to ensure we deliver great food and maintain a clean, organised and efficient kitchen.
Your responsibilities will include:

Why join us?
This is your opportunity to be part of something from the start. Pride of the Peaks is a new venture with a strong focus on good food, great service and being a welcoming local pub.
