  • Mentor and inspire the kitchen team, fostering a culture of learning and excellence, and helping each member to grow in their culinary careers.
  • Uphold strict health and safety standards, ensuring the kitchen remains a clean, organised, and safe environment.
  • Collaborate closely with the front-of-house team to deliver a seamless dining experience, addressing any service challenges that arise.


    What We’re Looking For:
  • Minimum 4years of experience as a Head Chef or in a senior culinary role within a high-volume kitchen.
  • A deep passion for cooking and a rich understanding of diverse culinary techniques, with a special affinity for Aegean cuisine.
  • Proven leadership and communication skills, with the ability to motivate and manage a diverse team in a high-pressure environment.
  • Flexibility to adapt to the demands of a busy kitchen, including evenings, weekends, and holidays.
  • Strong knowledge of food safety and hygiene regulations, with a commitment to maintaining impeccable standards.
