We're Hiring: Chef (Full-Time or Part-Time) at Atlas the Bakery – Pocklington
Are you passionate about seasonal food, creative cooking, and being part of something a little different? We're Atlas the Bakery, a small independent artisan bakery and cafe in the heart of Pocklington – and we're on the lookout for a talented chef to join us in the kitchen.
We're not your average cafe. Our ethos is rooted in quality, sustainability, and creativity. We care deeply about where our food comes from and how it's made – and we're looking for someone who shares that mindset.
What we're looking for:
* Someone who thinks outside the box and brings enthusiasm to the kitchen every day.
* A passion for cooking, seasonality, and sustainable food practices.
* Experience in a professional kitchen – to be confident and capable of running a shift independantly when needed.
* A willingness to learn, take on challenges, and grow with us.
Perks of the job:
* No evening shifts – we're a daytime-only operation.
* Sundays off – we're closed, so you always get that day to yourself.
* Lunch and drinks on the house
* A friendly, relaxed team atmosphere where your input is genuinely valued.
What the role involves:
* Cooking fresh dishes to order from our ever-evolving seasonal menu.
* Creating and baking innovative, high-quality goods.
* Contributing daily specials and bringing your own creativity to the table.
* Following all EHO standards and our HACCP process.
* Helping with stock, deliveries, cleaning, and occasional washing up.
* Working alongside our Head Chef and confidently taking the lead on solo shifts.
Hours & Pay:
* We're flexible – full-time (35–40 hrs/week) preferred, but part-time also considered.
* Weekend availability is important.
* Pay is based on experience and will be discussed at interview.
Full training will be provided – but what really matters is that you love food, care about doing things well, and want to be part of a supportive, creative team. You must have an eye for detail and kitchen experience for this role.
The role is available immediately for the right person. If this sounds like your kind of place, we'd love to hear from you.
