Join the Team at Suzette Bute Street!
Position: Crêpier / Chef (Open Kitchen)
Location: Bute Street, South Kensington
Type: Full-Time / Part-Time
Are you an experienced chef who takes pride in your craft and your workspace? Suzette, located in the heart of South Kensington’s vibrant "Little French Quarter," is looking for a skilled, professional Crêpier / Chef to join our team.
Because we cook in a fully open kitchen, we are looking for a chef who is not only talented on the griddle but also well-presented, organised, and dedicated to maintaining an immaculate station in front of our guests.
What You’ll Do
- The Art of the Crêpe: Masterfully prepare and cook traditional buckwheat galettes and sweet crêpes to order on our traditional griddles.
- On-Stage Performance: Work efficiently and professionally in our open-kitchen environment, engaging warmly with regulars and visitors.
- Section Ownership: Keep your cooking station clean, organised, and sanitary at all times during service—setting the standard for the shop.
- Mise en Place: Handle daily food preparation, ensuring fresh ingredients are correctly stored, labelled, and rotated.
What We’re Looking For
- Chef Experience: Proven experience in a professional, fast-paced kitchen environment.
- High Presentation Standards: Well-presented, neat, and comfortable working directly in view of the public.
- Cleanliness Mindset: Someone who naturally "cleans as they go" and takes pride in a spotless section.
- Food Safety Knowledge: A solid understanding of basic food safety regulations (HACCP, temperature checks, and safe food handling).
- Skill & Precision: Experience as a crêpier is a major plus, but a strong chef background with a willingness to master the traditional rozell (spreader) technique is equally welcome.
Why Work With Us?
- Prime Location: Based on the iconic, bustling pedestrian stretch of Bute Street.
- Daytime-Focused Hours: Enjoy a great work-life balance without late-night finishes.
- Competitive Pay: Plus shared tips and delicious staff meals.
- Great Team Vibe: Work with a small, supportive team with a highly loyal local customer base.
If you are a professional chef who loves a clean, high-energy workspace, we’d love to meet you.
Pay: £14.50-£18.00 per hour
