About the Business:
This is a well-established, privately owned venue that operates under a branded kitchen model, offering a clear, structured approach to service. Known for its smooth operation and loyal customer base, the site runs a consistent menu offering and sees between 20 and 150 covers a day, depending on the season and day of the week.
There’s a popular terrace that drives extra footfall during warmer months, and the management team take pride in creating a stable and supportive environment for staff to grow and enjoy their work.
You’ll be working alongside a reliable team of 4 chefs and 2 KPs, in a kitchen where teamwork, consistency, and communication are key.
The Role – Line Chef:
We’re looking for a capable Line Chef to join the team and play a vital role in the daily running of the kitchen. You’ll be responsible for running a section, assisting with preparation, and supporting service during busy periods.
This is a hands-on, practical role suited to someone who thrives in a structured kitchen, enjoys working to brand specifications, and values consistency and teamwork. You'll maintain high hygiene standards, manage your mise en place, and contribute to a smooth service each day.
As a Line Chef, you’ll report to the senior kitchen team and be expected to stay calm during service, step in where needed, and help maintain the flow of the kitchen on both quieter and busier days.
What we’re looking for:
Previous experience as a Line Chef or similar in a structured or branded kitchen
Confident with food prep, following specs, and kitchen service routines
Calm, reliable and focused – especially under pressure
A team player with a positive attitude and willingness to support colleagues
Good hygiene practices and an organised work style
Someone who takes pride in doing the basics right and supporting the wider team effort
Why apply?
This is a great opportunity for a Line Chef who’s looking for regular hours, a reliable team, and a kitchen that runs like clockwork. You’ll be joining a business that values its people, in a supportive environment with opportunities to grow.
