The Alchemist is a mystical apothecary, dispensing the most creative cocktails and delicious all-day dining with a twist. We build our kitchen teams on the foundations of trust, honesty and reliability, and we value teamwork, training, camaraderie, and passion. This is something we look for in our chefs, and something we will give to you in return.
We are looking for a Kitchen Assistant to join the team. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to develop their skills within a professional kitchen, with the opportunity to progress into a Line Chef role in the future.
You will be assisting our chefs with food preparation, desserts, washing up and keeping the kitchen clean, organised and running to our proven high standards. As you develop your skills and confidence, you will be given the opportunity to take on more responsibility and learn new areas of the kitchen, working towards becoming a fully trained Line Chef.
Training and development is at the core of our teams. You will often find our senior chefs have worked their way up the ranks from kitchen support, and we want to give you the same opportunity to develop your career with us.
We are looking for like-minded people who are reliable, hardworking and keen to learn. You don't need to have years of kitchen experience - we are looking for someone with the right attitude, a willingness to learn and a passion for working as part of a team.
We will provide you with training and development, as well as a strong support network, but we are looking for someone to take ownership of their role, and to take pride and enjoyment whilst doing so. As we firmly believe happy chefs are the best chefs.
