Supporting smooth kitchen operations alongside the Sous Chef and Head Chef.
Helping train and mentor junior kitchen staff.

A passion for food and a flair for creativity - especially in fast-paced, dynamic environments.
Strong communication and teamwork skills.
Flexibility to work across varying shifts, including evenings and weekends.
Enthusiasm to be part of a launch and help grow something special from the ground up.
What we offer:
