Kitchen Manager – The Clapham NorthAre you a kitchen boss who knows their FIFO from their
HACCP and isn't afraid to get a little dirty (in a good way)? Read on...Clapham North is on the hunt for a Kitchen
Manager to lead our crew of culinary legends. We’re all about big
flavours, messy hands, and good times - think loaded burgers, dirty
fries, cheesy goodness, BBQ feasts and banging buffets, all made from fresh,
high-quality ingredients.We don’t do beige or boring. One night you might be cooking
for a table of two, the next you’re smashing out a 100-cover party, and we want
someone who thrives on that kind of chaos (the good kind).You’ll be the kind of person who:
Has
led kitchen teams before (we don’t mind if it was 3 people or 30 -
leadership is leadership).
Knows
their way around rota planning, food costings, GPs, stock control
and menu design - but also knows how to make the team laugh
during a busy Saturday night.
Lives
and breathes cleanliness and standards - if you
don’t know what FIFO or HACCP stand for, this won’t be your jam.
Can
lead by example, keep calm under pressure, and push the kitchen forward
while having fun along the way.
