We're hiring — Kitchen Porter. 🧼 🥐


Turntable Bakery in Muswell Hill is looking for a Kitchen Porter to join our small team — part-time, joining us across our opening days — Wednesday to Sunday, from late morning until close — with room to grow as we do.


It's a hands-on role across both back and front of house: dishwashing, cleaning and prep, plus helping out on the counter and till. No two shifts the same — and real room to grow with us.


→ £12.71/hour
→ Wednesday–Sunday, late morning to close — as a guideline ~11am–4pm (Wed–Fri) and ~11am–4:30pm (Sat–Sun), roughly 26 hrs/week; times vary and aren't fixed
→ Free coffee and a fresh pastry on every shift
→ Workplace pension, paid annual leave (pro-rata) and a staff discount on our bakes
→ Real room to grow with the team


Key Responsibilities
BACK OF HOUSE
●      Wash, dry and put away crockery, glassware, utensils, trays and equipment, keeping a steady flow of clean items throughout service.
●      Keep the kitchen, wash-up area, floors, surfaces and bins clean, tidy and food-safe at all times.
●      Manage rubbish, recycling and waste correctly and keep the back areas organised.
●      Support the bakers and prep team with basic food preparation — weighing, portioning, prepping ingredients and simple assembly.
●      Receive and put away deliveries, and help keep the stockroom and fridges organised and rotated.
●      Follow all food safety, hygiene and cleaning schedules, completing records accurately every shift.


FRONT OF HOUSE
●      Help serve customers at the counter and operate the till accurately, especially during busy periods.
●      Clear, wipe and reset tables, and keep the café area clean, stocked and welcoming.
●      Restock the counter, drinks and takeaway supplies as needed.
●      Bring the same warm, friendly welcome our customers expect from Turntable.


GENERAL
●      Support opening and closing routines and daily setup.
●      Work flexibly across the kitchen and counter as the day demands, mucking in wherever the team needs a hand.


What We’re Looking For
●      A strong work ethic and real pride in keeping things clean, tidy and organised.
●      Reliable and punctual, and able to work across our opening days (Wednesday to Sunday), with flexibility on exact hours.
●      Able to keep a cool head and work quickly and calmly during busy service.
●      A friendly, can-do attitude and a genuine willingness to help wherever needed.
●      A basic understanding of — or willingness to learn — food safety and hygiene standards.
●      The right to work in the UK.


Desirable Experience
●      Previous experience as a kitchen porter, or in a café, bakery or busy hospitality kitchen.
●      Experience with commercial dishwashing equipment and cleaning routines.
●      Some experience handling cash or operating a till.
●      Basic food-prep experience.
●      A Level 2 Food Hygiene certificate — or we’ll support you to gain one.


Core Behaviours
●      Reliability  —  Dependable, punctual and consistent — the team can always count on you.
●      Pride in Standards  —  Takes ownership of cleanliness, hygiene and presentation across the whole space.
●      Energy & Pace  —  Keeps things moving calmly and efficiently through the busiest moments.
●      Teamwork  —  Happy to move between the kitchen and counter and support wherever needed.
●      Warmth  —  Friendly and approachable with customers and colleagues alike.
●      Willingness to Grow  —  Keen to learn new skills and take on more responsibility over time.


You'll fit right in if you're reliable, take pride in keeping things clean and tidy, keep a cool head when it's busy, and love being part of a team.


Applications reviewed on a rolling basis, so get in touch sooner rather than later.


Freshly baked. Smoothly played.
