Who we are:
Rooted in the heritage of Savile Row tailoring and inspired by the effortless style of Milan, Sartoria has been a Mayfair favourite for years. Now, we're bringing that same Italian elegance to Kensington, reimagined as a welcoming neighbourhood restaurant.
Serving classic Italian dishes all day — from cicchetti and aperitivo cocktails to relaxed lunches and elegant evening dining — Sartoria Kensington blends timeless style with a local, community feel. With a superb wine list showcasing the best of Italy and England, and a focus on warm, genuine hospitality, we're here to bring La Cucina Elegante into the heart of West London.
The Evolv Collection is a pioneering, premium hospitality group, founded by Sir Terence Conran in 1991. Our portfolio includes some of the most iconic restaurants in modern history, located in London, Birmingham, Manchester, and New York. Each brand in our collection reflects a distinctive heritage, character, and ambience. By investing in our people and striving for excellence, we are passionate about delivering outstanding guest experiences.
A bit about what you will be doing:
As the Junior Sous Chef, you'll play a pivotal role in leading our kitchen team to culinary excellence. Your responsibilities will include supervising and coaching kitchen staff on cooking techniques, food presentation, and safety protocols. During busy service periods, you'll command the pass while providing support to chefs on various kitchen sections, ensuring efficient food preparation and timely service. In the absence of the Head Chef, you'll seamlessly oversee kitchen operations, maintaining quality and consistency throughout. Monitoring inventory levels and optimizing cost control through ADACO-assisted stock ordering will be part of your routine, minimizing waste and maximizing efficiency. Upholding impeccable standards of cleanliness and organization in accordance with health and safety regulations is paramount. Moreover, you'll collaborate closely with the front-of-house team to address customer feedback and ensure a memorable dining experience for our guests.
If you're ready to bring your culinary expertise and leadership to our team, we encourage you to apply for the Sous Chef role today.
At The Evolv Collection, we celebrate diversity in all its forms. We embrace and support individuals from every background, culture, and identity. Join our team where everyone is welcomed, valued, and empowered to thrive.
