Job Description

Are you a kitchen boss who knows their FIFO from their HACCP and isn't afraid to get a little dirty (in a good way)? Read on...

Market House is on the hunt for a Kitchen Manager to lead our crew of culinary legends. We’re all about big flavours, messy hands, and good times - think loaded burgers, dirty fries, cheesy goodness, BBQ feasts and banging buffets, all made from fresh, high-quality ingredients.

We don’t do beige or boring. One night you might be cooking for a table of two, the next you’re smashing out a 200-cover party, and we want someone who thrives on that kind of chaos (the good kind).

You’ll be the kind of person who:

* Has led kitchen teams before (we don’t mind if it was 3 people or 30 - leadership is leadership).
* Knows their way around rota planning, food costings, GPs, stock control and menu design - but also knows how to make the team laugh during a busy Saturday night.
* Lives and breathes cleanliness and standards - if you don’t know what FIFO or HACCP stand for, this won’t be your jam.
* Can lead by example, keep calm under pressure, and push the kitchen forward while having fun along the way.

About us:

Market House is a one-of-a-kind venue in the centre of Reading, 5 minutes from the train station. Housed in a former bank, we’ve got 23 boutique hotel rooms, a rooftop bar, private party spaces (including a roof top bar & terrace), shuffleboards, ping pong, darts, a karaoke booth, and a constant buzz of energy from opening to late night.

We’re proudly part of Young’s Pubs, but we like to do things our own way - we work hard, play harder, and serve up serious vibes with seriously tasty food.

What we offer our Kitchen Managers:

* Creative control – design your own menus and daily specials
* Access to Young’s Apprenticeship Scheme and Leadership Development Programmes
* Culinary masterclasses with topics like game, butchery, and shellfish
* Food trips with our suppliers and regular chef forums
* Free meals on shift and a solid 20% discount across all Young’s pubs and hotels
* Share Save Scheme & Enhanced Company Pension
* 28 days holiday per year
* A cracking team and a venue where no two days are ever the same

What we look for:

* Someone who inspires teams and keeps standards sky-high
* A creative kitchen mind who can build and cost menus across a range of service types
* Experience in stock-taking, rota-writing and keeping the kitchen tidy on paper as well as in person
* A calm operator under pressure, always bringing good energy to the pass
* Passion for fresh food, bold flavours, and building a team that loves what they do
