Bow Bells Café, a busy and friendly family-run café in Romford Shopping Hall, is looking for a reliable, fast-working Kitchen Service Staff member to join our team.
In this role, you’ll take the lead in the kitchen on your working days — preparing and serving hot food quickly and efficiently, managing food prep, and keeping the kitchen clean and organised. You’ll also work closely with the front-of-house team to make sure all food items go out together and on time.
You don’t need to be a qualified chef, but you must have a good understanding of food and be confident handling a busy kitchen environment.
What you’ll be doing:
1. Cooking and plating hot breakfast and lunch items to order.
2. Leading on food prep (e.g., peeling, chopping, making soups and basic dishes).
3. Writing stock and prep lists and managing supplies.
4. Keeping the kitchen clean, organised, and hygienic.
5. Communicating with front-of-house staff to coordinate food going out together.
6. Supporting with general cleaning and washing up.
We’re looking for someone who:
* Has experience working in a busy kitchen (preferred).
* Has a good understanding of food and kitchen routines.
* Works quickly and stays calm under pressure.
* Has a high standard of personal hygiene and is clean and presentable.
* Is reliable, punctual, and self-motivated.
* Communicates clearly and works well with others.
* Understands and follows basic food hygiene and safety practices.
