Join the Familia at Fino Tapas | Chef de Partie
Are you a passionate chef who loves the energy of a busy kitchen but values having a life outside of it? Fino Tapas is looking for a skilled Chef de Partie to join our tight-knit team.
We aren't a massive corporate chain. We are a small, independent restaurant that takes massive pride in every plate we send out. From the perfect socarrat on our paella to the crunch of our croquetas, we care about the details—and we want someone who feels the same way.
The Perks
We know the industry "grind" can be grueling, so we do things differently. We want you to stay inspired, not burnt out.
- Real Work-Life Balance: This role is roughly 30 hours per week. You’ll have time to actually enjoy your days off.
- Fair Share of Tips: Our service charge and tips are shared fairly, providing a significant boost to your take-home pay.
- The "Fino" Discount: Enjoy generous discounts on our food and drinks for you and your inner circle.
- A Creative Voice: Because we’re independent, your ideas matter. You aren't just a number; you’re a key part of our culinary identity.
What You’ll Be Doing
As our Chef de Partie, you’ll be the heartbeat of your section. Your day-to-day will involve:
- Crafting Authenticity: Preparing and delivering high-quality tapas with a focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients.
- Section Ownership: Managing stock, prep lists, and maintaining a spotless station.
- Quality Control: Ensuring every dish meets our high standards before it hits the table.
- Collaboration: Working closely with a small, passionate team where everyone mucks in.
Who You Are
- The Experience: You must have prior experience as a Chef de Partie, or be a highly motivated Commis Chef ready to take the next step in your career.
- The Pro: You feel confident running a section and understand the flow of a professional kitchen.
- The Enthusiast: You have a genuine love for Spanish flavors and Mediterranean soul.
- The Teammate: You’re reliable, proactive, and keep a cool head when the tickets start flying.
- The Perfectionist: You take pride in your craft and wouldn't dream of sending out a dish that's "just okay."
