    • Managing underperforming staff members as well as providing incentives for staff members to go above and beyond the expectations of their particular chef roles.
    • Productively and pro-actively train and mentor junior chefs by drawing as much intrigue and passion from them as you can and pushing them to constantly improve.
    • Outside of the kitchen, take responsibility for, or effectively delegate the kitchen due diligence procedures including; HACCP; COSHH; food wastage and staff rotas.

    What we are looking for:
    • Currently a Head Chef looking for a new exciting challenge or Sous Chef ready to take the next step
    • Consistency in driving the standards up by demanding exceptional results throughout the kitchen operation
    • A creative individual who contributes to the overall operation of the business by offering ideas and ways to effectively improve areas of the kitchen
    • Proven management capabilities and consistently kept meticulously high food and food hygiene standards, shown you can get the best out of the team
    • Effectively trained junior team members and maintained high attention to due diligence procedures
    • A committed and passionate attitude to the role, always looking to improve and have a positive response to feedback
    • Shown consistently high working standards including attention to detail, organisation, reliability, team work and pro-activity

    We are the cheeky little brothers and sisters of Wells & Co. who have yet to grow up Despite all the fun we have, we also take your personal development as seriously as we take our beer and food.

    We think it's time to wave goodbye to your previous jobs and say hello to your new career.
