Earn up to £36,280 OTE on a 4-Day Week Chef de Partie / Sous Chef - Coast Birkdale
A chef job with a difference.
At Coast, we believe great chefs should be rewarded properly without being burned out by endless hours. That's why we offer a 4-day working week, guaranteed weekly tips, and a more organised way of working in one of Merseyside's busiest and most successful bar/restaurants.
£15–£16 per hour, plus guaranteed tips
We pay £15–£16 per hour depending on experience. On top of your hourly rate, our chefs benefit from guaranteed tips worth around £3,000 per year — taking your total package to between £34,200 and £36,280 OTE based on a 40-hour week.
Why this job is different
4-day working week - No endless long weeks. We care about your health, wellbeing, and life outside work.
Guaranteed tips worth £3,000 per year - Coast is a massively busy bar and restaurant, and our chefs benefit from that. We guarantee you'll earn around £3,000 per year in tips on top of your hourly pay.
A proper team kitchen - We work together with strong prep, clear systems, and consistent standards to create smoother, less stressful weekend services.
A Friday or Saturday off when possible - When the team is at full strength, we'll do our best to give each chef a Friday or Saturday off once a month, so you can spend time with friends and family.
Career development and support - You'll be joining one of the most successful and fastest-growing hospitality businesses in Merseyside - a place that is growing, improving, and trying to lead the way in hospitality.
