We're looking for a Cook / Kitchen Hand who gets it. Someone who takes pride in a plate going out clean and beautiful, even when it's the hundredth one that day. You'll fit in here if you: • Have 2+ years in a proper kitchen and know your way around prep, service, and a deep clean, • Care about consistency — same dish, same standard, every time, • Move with purpose when it's busy, and use the quiet moments to get ahead, • Want to actually talk to the people you work with (we're a small team — no hiding), • Are curious about food and open to throwing ideas into the mix as the menu evolves What you get back: • Competitive hourly rate (£12.71–£14.50, based on experience), • Free lunch every shift and unlimited speciality coffee — the good stuff, • Staff discount on everything else, • Tips, bonus scheme, and a yearly bonus, • Company pension and flexitime where the rota allows, • 8–10 hour shifts, daytime hours (we close in the evenings — yes, really), • A genuine path to grow with us as the business expands The practical bits: Location: Radlett WD7 7AB — you'll need to reliably commute Experience: 2 years minimum in a kitchen / chef / BOH role In-person role, full-time and permanent To apply: Send us your CV and a few lines about the last dish you cooked that you were genuinely proud of.
