    £58000 yearly
    Full-time
    London

    ABOUT US Since we opened our doors in London in 2011, Granger & Co. has brought the relaxed, sunny Australian way of dining to the city. Our restaurants reflect the spirit that Bill Granger made known around the world: easy-going, generous excellence. Our food makes people feel good. It is full of flavour, goodness and vitality. We thoughtfully source the best possible ingredients and the emotional comfort of food is as important to us as how it looks and tastes. We celebrate seasonality, champion local growers and suppliers and prioritise ingredients grown with care. As a family-owned restaurant group that is constantly evolving, we value all employees as respected individuals and foster diversity and inclusion, with everyone given a chance to share their voice and ideas. People stay with us and grow with us, many for over a decade. We are committed to parity. Sustainability is considered in everything we do. THE ROLE The heart of the role is delivering exceptional food by leading, training and developing your kitchen brigade with care. As Head Chef, you will oversee the quality and consistency of our food offering, manage your kitchen team, drive operational and commercial standards, and support our seasonal menu changes. We understand that balance looks different for everyone, and the role is designed with flexibility in mind. ABOUT YOU You love food and take a particular interest in how it is grown and produced, and you take great pride in teaching your team. You are a warm and approachable leader who inspires through example and enjoys helping the team grow. You care about seasonality, sustainable sourcing and cooking with whole ingredients. A knowledge of Australian food is welcome. Our restaurants are busy environments, and an ability to thrive in that environment is essential. Above all though, you care about flavour, learning and generosity. Formal training is not essential — experience, curiosity and attitude matter just as much. We particularly welcome applications from women, who are under-represented in senior kitchen roles across our industry, and we are committed to changing that. WHAT WE OFFER · A real work-life balance in a people-first business: a firm cap on hours, with overtime counting towards time in lieu and scheduled admin shifts every week for you and your senior chefs. · Enhanced maternity pay. · Ongoing learning opportunities, including visits to the farms and producers we work with. · An additional day of holiday for every year of service after two years. · Wellbeing support and private GP services through Hospitality Rewards. · 50% off when you dine in our restaurants (for up to four people). · Cycle to work scheme. If this role excites you, but do not feel you meet every requirement, we would still love to hear from you. Qualifications are not everything here. We care just as much about experience, curiosity, creativity and the way you work with others. Relevant training is welcomed but not essential. We believe great chefs and leaders come through many different paths, and we are always interested in people with something distinctive to bring.

    14 days ago
    £25000–£32000 yearly
    Full-time
    Fenchurch, City of London

    Why this job exists Italy gave the world its most loved cuisine and has never built a global fast food brand out of it. Every other big category has a winner. The Italian seat is empty. We are going after it. al volo is one shop in the City of London, cooking the full Italian table from scratch every morning: a hot main, two sides, focaccia to finish. That is the Nonna's Box. We are 4.9 stars on Google and 4.9 on Deliveroo, and we have never spent a penny on advertising to get there. The food did that. We need someone to run the shop properly, so we can get on with building the rest of it. The honest version We are small. Two founders, one site, a kitchen and a counter. Ale runs the food. Elena runs the brand and the commercial side. There is no head office, no HR department, and nobody else to hand a problem to. This seat has just come free. Rather than look for someone to fill the same shoes, we sat down and worked out what the business actually needs. This is that job, and it is a bigger one. Some days here are messy. Things change. You will get real responsibility far faster than you would anywhere else, and nobody is going to hold your hand through it. That is the deal. We think it is a good one. What you will own The opening. You are first in. You unlock, you set up, you get the machines on and the counter ready before the first customer walks in at 7. The kitchen team join you around 8. The morning is yours. Breakfast. We are launching a proper Italian breakfast in September: pick your base, pick your toppings, low prep, fast. You will set it up, run it, watch what sells and tell us what to change. It is a brand new revenue line and you are the one building it. The coffee. You are on the machine through the morning. Italian espresso standards, at speed, with a smile for the regulars. The lunch rush. From 11:30 you lead the floor: counter flow, queue moving, display full and looking right, Deliveroo out on time, everyone in the right place. The shop. Rotas, stock, standards, compliance. Temperature logs, cleaning records, allergens, food safety. Not glamorous. Completely non-negotiable. Yours. Real budgets. Coffee and bar, packaging, waste, and in time your own front-of-house hours. We will teach you how all of it works. Then we will expect you to have opinions about it. The shop when we are not in it. Decisions get made. Problems get solved. Nothing sits waiting for a founder to come back. Your first 90 days Month one. Learn the shop properly: behind the counter, on the machine, on the floor. Get to know the team and the regulars. Set the baselines on the numbers you are about to own. Month two. Launch breakfast with us. Take the bar, packaging and consumables budgets. Month three. Take the front-of-house rota and the labour budget. Tell us the three things you want to change, and start changing them. Who we are looking for You have run a site, a floor or a shift somewhere busy, and you were good at it. You know your way around an espresso machine, properly. You are organised in a way other people can see. But mostly: you are the person who spots the thing that is wrong and fixes it before anyone asks. Who has ideas and says them out loud. Who wants to build something rather than just work somewhere. This job is not for you if: You want a job that stops the second the clock says so You need a manual, a policy and a manager to check it "That is not my job" is a sentence you have used recently You would rather be comfortable than be part of something It is for you if you want to look at something in three years and know you helped build it. You will need: Experience leading a team in hospitality, retail or food service Real barista skills. We are serious about coffee. Food safety knowledge and the discipline to keep records properly The right to work in the UK To be comfortable with numbers, rotas and a spreadsheet What you get £30,000 a year, salaried, plus a discretionary bonus Monday to Friday. We are closed at weekends. That said, we are a young business, and now and then something will need doing that does not fit neatly inside a week. We are looking for someone who is there when it counts. 28 days holiday including bank holidays Lunch on us every day, and all the coffee you can drink Level 3 Food Safety and First Aid, funded by us if you do not already have them Room to grow as we do. The ambition is a second site, and then more after that. We would far rather grow the people already here than hire over them. Run this shop well and you will be in the room for whatever comes next, whether that turns out to be the next site or the office side of the business. Thanks Alessandro & Elena Founders, al volo
