    London

    Salary - Up to £58,000 per year Schedule - Full Time Experience - Previous experience as a Head Chef or Senior Sous Chef within a quality restaurant. Knowledge of Thai or South East Asian cuisine is preferred JKS Restaurants and Plaza Khao Gaeng are seeking a Head Chef to lead their kitchen operations. The successful candidate will have a passion for Thai/Asian cuisine and have previous experience as a Head Chef. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Head Chef looking for a new role in an award winning, critically acclaimed group The Restaurant Plaza Khao Gaeng celebrates Thailand’s coast-to-jungle cooking through the tradition of khao gaeng, broadly translated as “curry over rice”. Expect a kaleidoscope of curries rich with fresh coconut milk, aromatic curry pastes and fermented seasonings, alongside searingly hot stir-fries cooled with fresh herbs - all designed for mixing, matching and sharing. In Thailand, the most popular khao gaeng restaurants expand to fill whatever space they can. Plaza takes inspiration from one such spot in Bangkok, now spread through an old cinema, where curries sit in gleaming trays beneath a faded façade and climb the stairs to the former box office. This is anytime comfort food: a pause from the heat, noise and movement of the street outside. Our third Plaza Khao Gaeng opened in Covent Garden in May, turning to Thailand’s deep south - the historic borderlands of Pattani, Yala, Narathiwat and beyond. Anchored by a large charcoal grill, the menu draws together smoke, spice and acidity in a generous, khao gaeng-style spread made for the table - our most Southern menu yet, inspired by rural kitchens. The Position As Head Chef, you will be responsible for ensuring the delivery of consistent, high quality and innovative dishes and specials; you will play a key role in menu development, working closely with the Group Exec Chef and Chef Director. You will manage the overall kitchen operation, including prep schedules, stock control, budgeting and maintenance, as well as the day to day management of the kitchen team.
