We are building a brand-new kitchen team from the ground up, and we aren't just looking for skills on a CV—we are looking for great characters.
We run a vibrant, modern Turkish restaurant in the heart of Edinburgh, combining the incredible bounty of the Scottish larder with bold Turkish flavours, in-house butchery, and live-fire charcoal cooking. With just 45 covers, our focus is on great hospitality and bold flavours.
If you have a positive attitude, a strong work ethic, and a genuine hunger to learn, we have a spot for you.
The Roles We Are Filling:
- Sous Chef: The Head Chef’s right hand. You’re a natural leader who can run the pass, mentor the team, and help manage the kitchen, all while maintaining a calm, positive vibe.
- Chef de Partie (CDP): Ready to own your section? You’ll take charge of your station, prep with pride, and master the art of live-fire cooking and modern Turkish plating.
- Commis Chef: The perfect launchpad. You don't need years of experience, just a great attitude, sharp knives, and a desire to learn everything from whole-animal butchery to complex spice blending.
What’s in it for you?
- Real Work-Life Balance: A structured 4-day working week. When you are off, you are off.
- A Culture of Learning: You will learn in-house butchery, live-fire charcoal management, and modern Turkish gastronomy. We invest heavily in training our team.
- Zero Toxicity: We believe in an ego-free kitchen. No screaming, no politics. Just a supportive group of food-obsessed people working toward the same goal.
- Great Owners & Head Chef: We back our team completely. Your ideas will be heard, and your hard work will be recognized.
- Fair Pay: Competitive salaries tailored to your level, plus a fair, transparent share of the service charge.
Who You Are
- A Great Character: You bring good energy to the kitchen. You leave the drama at the door and show up ready to support your team.
- Keen to Develop: You aren't afraid to ask questions. You want to get better every single day.
- Passionate About Food: You genuinely care about the plates leaving the kitchen and are excited by fresh, vibrant ingredients.
Ready to build something special?
We don’t care where you used to work; we care about where you want to go. If you want to be part of a kitchen culture that values your life outside work as much as your craft inside it, we want to hear from you.
Apply today. Please send over your CV and note which position (Sous, CDP, or Commis) you are aiming for.
Pay: £13.00-£18.00 per hour
Work Location: In person
