We're looking for a kitchen leader.
Oowee Vegan is the UK's leading plant-based burger joint. Our food is bold, delicious and ultimately indulgent, and our kitchens need to match that. We need someone who knows how to build a team, hold a process, and keep a kitchen running brilliantly when it's at its busiest.
What the role actually looks like:
You'll be responsible for the day-to-day running of the kitchen, owning every shift from prep through to close. That means leading your team, enforcing our food safety and hygiene standards, managing ordering and stock, and making sure every service runs smoothly whether it's a quiet Tuesday or a packed Saturday night. You won't just be keeping the lights on. You'll be setting the standard, developing your people, and building a kitchen culture worth being part of.
What we need from you:
You'll have several years of kitchen management experience, not just time on the line. You know what it takes to motivate a team, hold people accountable with respect, and deliver consistent results under pressure. You're a process person. You understand that in a fast kitchen, the system is everything, and you take pride in running yours properly. Experience in plant-based or vegan cooking is not required. Experience in leading people and running a tight operation absolutely is.
What you'll get:
- Free food on shift
- 50% staff discount across all Oowee outlets
We're open 7 days a week and flexibility across days and weekends is part of the role. We'll work with you on scheduling.
If this sounds like the kind of role you've been looking for, we'd love to hear from you.
