Senior Pizza Chef - Lenny's - MJMK Restaurants
KOL · Fonda · AngloThai · Luso · Casa do Frango · New Openings
(2 Michelin stars, World's 50 Best Restaurants)
£16.50 to £17.00 per hour (dependent on experience)
Location: Full time, Henrietta Street, Covent Garden, site based, WC2E, London
Lenny’s is a new pizzeria on Henrietta Street in Covent Garden, from Max Lewis and MJMK Restaurants. The result of Max’s extensive travels to New Haven, Connecticut, it is built around pizzas that are crispy, chewy and charred, a revival of his much-loved pop-up now finding a permanent home in the heart of Covent Garden. We’re building the opening team now.
We're looking for a Senior Pizza Chef to lead the pizza section in our opening kitchen. You'll own the dough from mix to stretch, run the oven through service and make sure every pizza that leaves your station is crispy, chewy and charred, exactly like the last.
This role suits an experienced pizza chef ready to step up, or a strong Senior Chef de Partie with serious dough and oven experience who wants to lead a section. You'll set the example for the pizza team, train new chefs on Lenny's specs and help shape the standard from the very first service.
This is a hands-on role for someone ready to help build something from the ground up.

What we offer:
MJMK Restaurants owns and operates a collection of award-winning restaurants. Founded in 2018 by lifelong friends Jake Kasumov and Marco Mendes, our journey began with Casa do Frango.
In 2020, we partnered with chef patron Santiago Lastra to open KOL, a restaurant in Marylebone celebrating Mexican cuisine with British ingredients. KOL has since earned a Michelin star and been named one of the World's 50 Best Restaurants.
2024 saw two new ventures: Fonda, a contemporary Mexican concept in Mayfair, our second collaboration with Santiago Lastra, and AngloThai in Marylebone, a debut restaurant from husband-and-wife John and Desiree Chantarasak, blending Thai flavours with British ingredients. Within three months of opening, AngloThai earned a Michelin star.
In the 2025 National Restaurant Awards, AngloThai was named The Square Opening of the Year and ranked 7th in the Top 100 list, followed by KOL at number 50. Luso, a contemporary Portuguese restaurant in Fitzrovia, opened in September 2025.
We're building ambitious restaurant brands with a focus on quality, creativity and guest experience, and we're just getting started.
Henrietta Street, WC2E 8PS, London
