Chef & Cook

4 hours ago111 views

We're looking for a confident and enthusiastic chef for a full-time position in our cafe kitchen. The ideal candidate is reliable, organised, proactive, and eager to learn. We would love to work with someone who feels passionate about food - both cooking and eating it. You will need to have a Level 2 food hygiene certificate and good knowledge of HACCP principles, as a minimum requirement, and will understand the importance of following the relevant protocols. We are a small team, so you will be working across all sections of the kitchen, working closely with the head and sous chef. Experience and/or interest in baking is a plus! During our busy weekend services, you will be expected to support either the head or sous chef position, ensuring dishes are leaving the kitchen in a timely manner, and - most importantly - are of consistently high quality.
The cafe is a lovely environment to work in, with a friendly team, and the benefit of daytime-only shifts. Top quality coffee and food is available on shift, and we value the creative input of all employees, so there are plenty of opportunities to get involved in menu development. Shift patterns will be subject to change, but minimum three and a half weekday, and one weekend shifts are guaranteed and expected (approx. 38 hours)
The role includes, but is not limited to:
  • Food Preparation: Prepare a variety of dishes, elements of dishes, and baked goods, as per given recipes, focusing on quality and consistency.
  • Food Presentation: Plate/finish dishes with a close eye on maintaining strong and consistent presentation.
  • Stock Rotation: Organise orders, maintain accurate stock rotation to ensure minimal waste.
  • Kitchen Operation: Uphold high standards of cleanliness and organisation within the kitchen, ensuring food safety and hygiene protocols are followed.
