Kitchen Porter / kitchen assistant – Paid Training in Artisan Fresh Pasta & Prep 🍝
Location: Haggerston, East London
The Snapshot:
- Pay: £12.71 – £13.50 / hr (depending on experience)
- Schedule: Guaranteed Mondays OFF. Full availability required across Tuesday – Sunday (specific days off confirmed on rota).
- Hours: 2:00 PM – Close (around 10:30 PM / 11:00 PM). Hours may shift earlier once you progress into daytime kitchen prep.
- Team & Setup: Small, fast-paced 22-seat fresh pasta restaurant. You’ll work directly alongside 2 skilled chef-owners and 1 chef. No massive brigade, no corporate drama.
What We Need:
- Hands-On Hustle: Note that we do not have a dishwasher—all pots, pans, and serviceware are washed by hand. We need someone fast, methodical, and unafraid of hard graft during a busy dinner rush.
- Reliability & Availability: Flexible availability from Tuesday through Sunday so we can build a consistent weekly rota.
- Kitchen Standards: A keen eye for cleanliness, organisation, and keeping the kitchen spotless and safe throughout service.
Why Apply? This isn't a dead-end pot-wash job. If you show energy, reliability, and pride in your work, we will actively train you up in the kitchen—teaching you how to prep seasonal produce the artisan way and make fresh pasta from scratch. You get a tight-knit team, direct mentorship from the owners, and a real pathway to becoming a chef.
