Chef de Partie – Condesa, Bristol
35-48 hours a week | Mexican-inspired, fire cooking.
We opened Condesa 18 months ago; it is a Mexican-inspired restaurant on Whiteladies Rd, Clifton where everything is built around passion, flavour, and connection. We cook over charcoal, we use carefully sourced ingredients including meat we buy as whole animals farmed regeneratively at Belmont, Ashton Court and Three Pools. We believe a great team is at the core of it all.
Condesa is part of the Season + Taste family, a small restaurant group of four sites which share values that guide us every day:
Care · Always Be Improving · Passion for the Product · Professional and Fun · Simple and Straightforward.
The Role
We’re looking for a Chef de Partie who cares about ingredients, flavour and teamwork. In your role you’ll:
Own and run a section with precision and pride. Developing to be able to run quiet shifts.
Lead by example; support junior chefs, train them, show them how we do things.
Keep our kitchen running smoothly: accurate prep, consistent quality, smart stock and cost control.
Make sure every dish leaving the pass reflects our high standards of flavour, presentation and guest experience.
What it’s like working with us
Our kitchen is built to be a great place to work: natural light, efficient, well-laid-out, focused on making things properly.
You’ll join a team who are passionate, curious and wants to get better every day.
You’ll have a leadership team—Head Chef Sean and Operations Manager Belle—who genuinely value your input and help you grow.
We believe in doing things from scratch, choosing good ingredients, and letting the ingredients lead the way.
You’ll experience an environment that’s professional yet fun.
What we’re looking for
Experience in a quality kitchen (Chef de Partie or a strong Commis ready to step up).
A genuine love of food: taste, produce, texture, detail.
A team-player who communicates clearly, leads calmly and holds standards.
An organised, dependable person who takes pride in their work and is always open to improvement.
Why join us?
You’ll work somewhere with clear identity, creative food and passion.
You’ll grow in a role that gives you autonomy and responsibility.
You’ll be part of something we’re proud of: cooking from scratch, sourcing properly, serving memorable dishes.
We share fair pay, service charge via Tronc, and regular review and growth conversations.
You’ll belong to a team where your effort, ideas and personality make a difference.
