Kitchen Manager – All-Day Diner in Chalk Farm
📍 Location: Chalk Farm, London
👨‍🍳 Full-time, Permanent
💷 Salary: Up to £32,500 per year (DOE) + TRONC


Lead the Kitchen. Set the Standard. Make Every Service Count.


We’re on the hunt for a hands-on Kitchen Manager to take charge of our lively all-day diner — serving everything from hearty breakfasts to slow-smoked BBQ dinners.


This role is ideal for someone who thrives on variety. Some days will be fast-paced and buzzing, others calm and steady — and you’ll know how to manage both with confidence. Whether you’re leading a team through a packed dinner service or running the kitchen solo during quieter shifts, you’ll keep standards high and the food exceptional.


What You’ll Do

  • Own the kitchen — from breakfast to dinner service
  • Lead and inspire your team, training and developing talent
  • Manage rotas, stock, ordering, and supplier relationships
  • Keep GP on track, control costs, and reduce waste
  • Deliver consistent quality and presentation every time
  • Stay adaptable — confidently covering all kitchen roles when needed

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience as a Kitchen Manager, Sous Chef, or an ambitious Junior Sous Chef ready to step up
  • Calm under pressure, organised, and proactive
  • Strong leadership and communication skills
  • Passion for great food and guest satisfaction
  • Solid knowledge of food safety and compliance

What’s In It For You

  • Up to £32,500 per year + TRONC
  • Free meals on duty & generous staff discounts
  • Career development and progression opportunities

Employee perks:

  • Discounts on travel, leisure, and shopping
  • 24/7 online GP and mental health support
  • Fitness discounts and nutrition advice

Ready to lead a kitchen where no two days are the same? Apply now and make your mark with us.
