Own prep systems, mise en place, and station standards.

Train new team members; lead sharp, efficient briefings.

Support stock/ordering, control waste, watch costs.

Keep HACCP/food safety spotless; ace audits.

Pre-opening: equipment checks, recipe cards, menu run-throughs.

How we work Zero-ego, solutions-first: We fix problems on the spot and move on.

Taste leads: Flavour, texture and temperature trump everything.

Clean & calm: Tight mise en place, quiet bodies/hot plates, tidy pass.

Standards over shortcuts: Clear specs, labelled containers, verified prep lists.

Teach & be taught: Everyone coaches; everyone learns.

What we offer Competitive salary with predictable scheduling (and two consecutive days off when possible).

Real input on menus and specials, not just execution.

Fair overtime policy and proper breaks.

A genuine chance to step into Head Chef as we expand.

You are Quality-obsessed, calm under pressure, guest-focused.
