The Vine House is a wine bar & restaurant in Kemptown with 40 indoor seats, another 40 in the garden & a soon-to-be-opened private dining & tasting room.
You will be responsible for delivering a concise menu written by Wild Flor head chef George Upshall (with creative scope for daily specials & seasonal menu changes). You will be responsible for day to day operations & all matters relating to food safety & team management.
We are open for 11 full kitchen services per week (Tuesday-Saturday Lunch & Dinner plus Sunday Lunch). We are offering 45 hour / 7 shift per week contract.
We are looking for someone with classic cookery training & experience, who isn't reliant on modern techniques & equipment, while setting a good example to junior members of the kitchen team.
The offering is deliberately more stripped back than Wild Flor - think classic French neighbourhood wine bar.
You should have several years of experience working in like-minded establishments, handling fine produce & serving similar numbers of guests per week.
We look forward to meeting & discussing the role further with the right candidates.
