Recruitment & Onboarding: Hire, onboard, and train back-of-house (BOH) staff, building a reliable squad.
Staff Rotas: Produce weekly kitchen rotas balanced against forecasted sales targets and labor budgets.
Coaching & Retention: Develop kitchen talent (Sous Chefs, CDP, KPs) to foster retention and build internal succession pipelines.

3. Financial & Inventory Control

GP & Margins: Manage stock and minimize waste to hit target Gross Profit (GP%) margins.
Ordering & Stock Takes: Complete stock takes (weekly/monthly) and place precise orders with designated central suppliers using approved portal systems.
Waste Management: Log, monitor, and actively reduce kitchen waste, prep error, and dead stock.

4. Health, Safety & Compliance

Food Safety Management System (FSMS): Maintain a strict standard of food hygiene to achieve and preserve a 5-Star Food Hygiene Rating.
Due Diligence Logging: Ensure daily temperature logs, labeling systems, probe checks, and opening/closing checklists are 100% completed.
Allergen Control: Strictly enforce allergen matrix procedures to protect guests and comply with legal requirements.

Requirements & Experience

Experience: 2+ years as a Head Chef, Kitchen Manager, or strong Senior Sous Chef in a high-volume pub, casual dining, or chain restaurant background.
Certifications:
Level 2 or Level 3 Food Safety in Catering (Level 3 preferred).
HACCP awareness & Allergen training.
Skills:
Strong understand of kitchen P&L, stock controls, and GP management.
Calm under pressure with clear communication during rush periods.
Proficiency with digital kitchen systems (kitchen display systems, inventory/stock apps, rota software).

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

Food Hygiene Score: 5 Stars (or top internal audit rating).
GP Margin: Achieving site target.
Speed of Service: Meeting brand ticket-time targets.
Labour Budget: Kitchen wage cost kept within agreed percentage of sales.
