2 hours ago54 views

  1. Role Purpose
    To lead the Larder and Production section, ensuring all cold and prep-heavy elements meet exact standards. This role acts as the “engine room” for the kitchen, providing high-quality salads and prepped components that allow the main service to run smoothly under the Head Chef.
  2. Core Responsibilities (The Management Pillar)
    Section Ownership:
    Take full responsibility for the larder station, ensuring it is set up and ready for service daily.
    Commercial Awareness:
    Monitor portion control and maintain accurate waste logs for your section to ensure the kitchen meets its Gross Profit (GP) targets.
    Team Leadership:
    Supervise and mentor Kitchen Assistants or Commis Chefs, ensuring they follow your prep lists and quality standards.
    Stock Management:
    Perform daily stock checks; communicate ordering requirements for fresh produce, dry goods, and specialty ingredients to the Head Chef.
  3. Daily Operational Tasks (Your Specific Checklist)
    High-Volume Prep:
    Execute the daily prep list with precision, ensuring all “larder” tasks are completed before transitioning to support the Head Chef with main cookery.
    Recipe Adherence:
    Produce all salads and cold items strictly according to stored recipes, using scales to weigh ingredients as per job sheets for 100% consistency.
    Specialty Production:
    Maintain levels of all “House” items, including proprietary dressings, pickles, and ferments.
    Kitchen Support:
    Provide active support to the Head Chef and other team members when needed.
  4. Due Diligence & Hygiene
    Section Cleanliness:
    Maintain a high standard of hygiene on your section and take ownership of the organisation and shelving within the walk-in fridge.
    Compliance Paperwork:
    Complete all daily “Due Diligence” logs, including core temperature checks, cooling logs, and labelling (complying with Natasha’s Law).
    Food Safety:
    Ensure all ingredients are stored correctly (FIFO) and that cross-contamination risks are managed at all times
