- Cooking and plating hot breakfast and lunch items to order
- Leading on food prep (e.g. peeling, chopping, making soups and basic dishes)
- Writing stock and prep lists and managing supplies
- Keeping the kitchen clean, organised and hygienic
- Communicating with front-of-house staff to coordinate food going out together
- Supporting with general cleaning and washing up
We’re looking for someone who:
- Has experience working in a busy kitchen (preferred)
- Has a good understanding of food and kitchen routines
- Works quickly and stays calm under pressure
- Has a high standard of personal hygiene and is clean and presentable
- Is reliable, punctual, and self-motivated
- Communicates clearly and works well with others
- Understands and follows basic food hygiene and safety practices
