Be Part of the Experience at Parallel

Nestled in the heart of Cardiff, Parallel is a vibrant and immersive dining destination that sits alongside its renowned sister restaurant, Pasture. Built around the theatre of live-fire cooking and exceptional hospitality, Parallel offers a dynamic, high-energy experience where guests can enjoy beautifully crafted food, outstanding drinks, and a front-row seat to the action.

Our intimate dining room is centred around an open kitchen and chef's counter, allowing guests to watch the team work their magic while enjoying a menu of expertly crafted small plates and Parallel favourites. The menu evolves monthly, showcasing the very best seasonal ingredients from Wales and the West Country, ensuring every visit offers something new to discover.

Adding to the experience is the exciting new Parallel Bar – a sleek and stylish cocktail destination in its own right. Here, guests can enjoy expertly mixed cocktails, carefully selected wines, premium spirits, and delicious nibbles while watching the theatre of our talented bartenders at work. Whether stopping in for pre-dinner drinks, settling in for an evening with friends, or making the bar the main event, Parallel Bar offers an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and welcoming.

At Parallel, creativity, craftsmanship, and genuine hospitality are at the heart of everything we do. We're always looking for passionate, talented individuals who want to be part of a team dedicated to delivering memorable experiences and pushing the boundaries of what hospitality can be.

Croeso i Parallel — welcome to something special.

Parallel by Pasture is all about energy, creativity, and precision, a vibrant, open-kitchen restaurant serving bold, seasonal small plates directly to guests at the bar. Every dish is ingredient-led, and every detail matters. This is a place where food, people, and service all carry equal weight.

We’re now looking for a Head Chef to take full ownership of the kitchen, someone who lives for food, leads with purpose, and builds high-performing teams that love what they do. This is more than just managing the pass. You’ll be shaping the culture, setting the standards, and driving service from the heart of the room.

What you’ll be doing

As Head Chef, you’ll be responsible for every aspect of the kitchen, leading from the front, developing your team, and delivering consistent quality, service, and systems. You’ll create an environment where standards are high, people are supported, and everything runs with clarity and confidence.

You’ll also be a key part of the guest experience, working from an open kitchen and connecting with diners throughout service.

You’ll

Lead, train, and develop a focused, motivated kitchen team
Create a strong, inclusive culture where people grow and take pride in their work
Manage all kitchen systems: prep, ordering, GP, stock, rotas, and compliance
Maintain full food safety and cleanliness standards, always five-star EHO ready
Run clear, calm, high-energy services with consistency and control
Interact confidently with guests at the kitchen bar and lead hospitality from the pass
Work closely with the front-of-house team to deliver a smooth, unified guest experience
Set the creative and professional tone for everything that happens in the kitchen

You

You’re passionate, focused, and deeply committed to doing things properly, from how a tomato is sliced to how a new chef is trained. You lead with clarity, keep a cool head under pressure, and care about the team as much as the food. You understand that great kitchens are built on great culture, and you set that standard every day. You’re confident on the pass, calm in the chaos, and proud of the energy and care you bring to your work. Whether it’s service, systems, or standards, you own it.

Benefits at Pasture

This is the perfect opportunity for someone looking to start their career in hospitality or anyone who loves working in a fast-paced, hands-on environment. If that sounds like you,

The hourly rate shown includes a competitive share of Tronc: 100% of Tronc is distributed to the staff.
