Job Title:         Head Chef

For more than a decade, this East London dining pub has built a reputation as a genuine local favourite.

Independent, characterful and firmly part of its neighbourhood, it attracts guests who return for its atmosphere, its food and its sense of community.

The kitchen you’ll be joining is steady, well‑run and supported by a team who know the operation inside out.

The incoming Head Chef will shape the food identity going forward, creating dishes that feel right for a lively, design‑led pub with a loyal East London crowd.

The focus is on flavour, seasonality and well-executed European cooking - not fine‑dining flourishes or experimental tasting‑menu concepts.

This is a role for a chef who understands how to cook food people genuinely want to eat.

Head Chef Benefits:

• £55,000 (package)
• Autonomy over a seasonal, European-led menu that suits a neighbourhood dining room.
• Work with high‑quality, trusted suppliers.
• A strong, stable kitchen team already in place.
• A good salary with a GP-related bonus.
• Sensible, sociable working hours.

Head Chef Requirements:

• A Head Chef who values simplicity, seasonality and flavour over unnecessary complexity.
• A leader who can nurture, guide and motivate an already cohesive kitchen team.
• A chef with strong organisational skills and a calm, grounded approach to service.
• Experience working with high-quality produce and maintaining strong GP performance.
• Someone who understands the balance between creativity and consistency in a neighbourhood setting.
