We're looking for chefs of all levels, from Chef de Partie through to senior Chefs, to support a wide range of clients across the area.
Whether you're looking for the odd shift to top up your income, regular weekly work, or something closer to full-time hours, we have opportunities available to suit.
You'll have the chance to work across a variety of environments including:
Schools
Care homes
Hotels
Pubs
Restaurants
Event venues and hospitality sitesNo two weeks are the same, which is exactly why many of our chefs love the flexibility of working with us.
What We're Looking For
This role suits chefs who are confident walking into different kitchens and getting on with the job.
You might be leading a team one day and slotting into an established brigade the next. The ability to adapt quickly, read the room, and work the client's way is essential.
We're looking for chefs who can:
Think on their feet when situations change
Work independently without constant supervision
Adapt to different kitchens, systems and teams
Lead when needed and support when required
Maintain high standards under pressure
Hit the ground running from the start of a shiftExperience is important, but attitude and adaptability are what really set our people apart.
Hours & Flexibility
We offer:
Ad hoc shifts
Part-time opportunities
Ongoing weekly work
Full-time hours for those who want themYou tell us when you're available, and we'll do our best to match work around your schedule.
Pay Rates
Pay rates typically range from £16.00 to £24.00 per hour, depending on the role, location, days you are working, and level of responsibility.
Driving & DBS
A driving licence and access to your own transport is preferred due to the variety of sites we cover, although it's not essential.
A DBS certificate dated within the last 12 months is highly beneficial, particularly for chefs interested in working within schools and care homes.
Don't worry if you don't currently have one, we can help arrange a new DBS application where required.
Interested?
Whether you're an experienced Head Chef looking for a change, a strong Sous Chef wanting more flexibility, or a CDP keen to broaden your experience across different kitchens, we'd love to have a conversation.
Apply today and let's find the type of work that suits you, rather than trying to make you fit into a role that doesn't.
