JOIN THE KITCHEN: Full-Time Chef de Partie @ Brewski Chester
Spread Happiness Through Great Hospitality.
Brewski Chester is the highest-revenue site in the Destination Dining Group — Chester's busiest casual dining kitchen, and still growing. We specialise in North American comfort food: famous for our massive sharing boards, a British Wagyu menu built from scratch, and a food philosophy that refuses to cut corners.
We've grown 500% in turnover over the last seven years. There has never been a more exciting time to join the family.
The Role
As Chef de Partie at Brewski, you own your section. Every plate that leaves your pass meets our standard — no exceptions, no excuses, no shortcuts.
We don't do "reheat and serve." Every single thing on our menu is made in-house from scratch — signature sauces, house rubs, hand-pressed burgers, hand-built boards. Right now we're running British Wagyu as the centrepiece of our menu. Prep duties form part of your day to day — we batch prep everything from scratch, so your section lives and dies by the work you put in before service. If true craft cooking matters to you, this is the kitchen you've been looking for.
The practical stuff:
- Hours: 45 hours per week (Full-Time, Permanent)
- Availability: Flexibility for split shifts, evenings, and weekends is essential
- Pay: £12.50–£14.00/hr (experience dependent) + service charge averaging £500/month — OTE circa £28,000–£31,000
A Day in the Kitchen
You'll run your section through 150–250 covers on a weekend service, working alongside a tight, experienced team. The ticket machine doesn't stop — and neither do you. Standards are non-negotiable, but so is looking after each other. If you thrive under pressure and take pride in what you put out, you'll fit right in.
Who You Are
We don't do "Jam Sandwiches." We want chefs who are genuinely passionate about food, obsessed with quality, and have the skin in the game to perform when it counts.
