Kitchen Apprentice / Trainee Chef
Love food? Looking to learn a trade for life?
We’re looking for an enthusiastic school leaver or college student who’s keen to begin their journey in the kitchen. No experience is needed—just a positive attitude, a strong work ethic, and a genuine passion for food.
This is a fantastic opportunity to earn while you learn in a busy, independent pub where everything is made with care. You’ll work alongside experienced chefs who’ll help you develop your skills, build your confidence, and grow into a great chef.
What you’ll be doing:
- Learning how a professional kitchen operates.
- Assisting with food preparation and service.
- Preparing fresh ingredients and helping create quality dishes.
- Keeping the kitchen clean, organised, and safe.
- Learning about food hygiene and kitchen safety.
- Working as part of a supportive, hardworking team.
- Developing new skills every day.
What we’re looking for:
- A genuine interest in cooking and hospitality.
- Someone who’s reliable, punctual, and eager to learn.
- A positive attitude and willingness to get stuck in.
- Ability to work well in a fast-paced environment.
- Pride in your work and attention to detail.
- Someone who enjoys being part of a team.
What you’ll get:
- Hands-on training from experienced chefs.
- A supportive environment where questions are encouraged.
- Opportunities to progress as your skills develop.
- Flexible hours around college where possible.
- Staff meals on shift.
- Employee discounts.
- A chance to build a career in hospitality, not just find a job.
If you’re excited about food, enjoy learning new skills, and want to be part of a friendly independent pub that takes pride in what it serves, we’d love to hear from you.
