Behind every great restaurant, there's a great organisation.


At Big Mamma, our trattorias may look full of spontaneity, energy and Italian chaos, but behind the scenes, everything runs with precision.


We're looking for an F\&B Procurement Intern to join our UK team in London and help ensure our restaurants have exactly what they need, exactly when they need it.


From fresh ingredients to glassware, from supplier coordination to menu data accuracy, you'll be part of the operational engine that keeps our restaurants moving.


Your Mission


To ensure the availability and smooth flow of all food, beverage and non-food products across Big Mamma UK trattorias, supporting procurement, logistics and operational accuracy.

1. Procurement

2. Logistics


  • Oversee central supply orders and coordinate deliveries to restaurants

3. Menu Management Support


Ensure data accuracy across:


  • Recipe databases
  • POS systems
  • Menus and dietary information sheets

Who You Are
