Brunch Chef – Future Head Chef | Chocolate Dino Bakery & Coffeehouse - Chocolate Dino Bakery and Coffeehouse - London

Chef & Cook

2 May 2026816 views

Expires in 15 days

We run 60–80 covers per brunch service with a two-person kitchen team. We are small, premium bakery with 12 seats inside and 18 outside. No large brigade. No evenings. No nights. Ever. Home by 5:30pm every day.
We are opening a second site. The person in this role becomes our full-time salaried Head Chef — managing food production across both locations and building the kitchen from the ground up. That path starts on weekends, running our kitchen alone.


The Role
You will independently run our weekend brunch service — prep, service, clean down. You will often be the sole chef on shift, delivering French toast, eggs, waffles, and pancakes to the standard that earned us 5 Great Taste Awards and a 4.9-star Google rating from 700+ reviews.


What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience running a busy brunch or café kitchen independently
  • Able to maintain pace, consistency, and presentation under pressure
  • Wants ownership, not just a job
  • Calm, organised, self-sufficient on the line

This Is Not For You If

  • You need supervision
  • You can’t commit to full weekends
  • You want a quiet kitchen

Compensation
£16–£17 per hour inclusive of service charge. Base rate depending on experience.


Schedule
Weekends required. Never past 5:30pm. No evenings, no nights. Weekday hours available as the team grows.


Benefits

  • Staff food and coffee every shift
  • No evenings or nights, ever
  • Direct path to full-time salaried Head Chef as we open site two

To Apply
Tell us briefly about the highest-volume service you have run independently.
