· stock control and ensuring orders are put away
· bringing creative ideas to our already extensive lists of recipes
· supervision of 2 kitchen staff
- controlling and directing the food preparation process.
· ensuring the kitchen meets all regulations including sanitary and food safety guidelines.
Our kitchen is in full view of the public so an orderly, clean and professional work ethic is essential. In addition, you should have strong leadership skills, a keen eye for detail and the ability to multitask.
