Full job description

Full-Time | Permanent | Sundays Off

Are you a passionate chef with a love for authentic Italian food, fresh ingredients and creating dishes you're genuinely proud of?

We're looking for a talented, hands-on Deli Chef to join a growing independent Italian deli and restaurant in the Kings Hill area of Kent.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a chef who enjoys working with quality ingredients, bringing ideas to the table and playing an important role in the development of an exciting hospitality business.

The Opportunity

You'll be joining a small, passionate business where quality, consistency and genuine Italian hospitality are at the heart of everything they do.

Working closely with the owner, you'll have the opportunity to take ownership of the kitchen, contribute to menus and help shape the food offering as the business continues to grow.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Preparing and cooking fresh, authentic Italian dishes to a consistently high standard.
  • Taking responsibility for the smooth day-to-day running of the kitchen.
  • Supporting menu development and introducing new ideas and seasonal specials.
  • Managing stock, ordering, food preparation and kitchen organisation.
  • Maintaining excellent food safety, hygiene and cleanliness standards.
  • Helping build an efficient, organised kitchen as the business develops.

What We're Looking For

  • Previous experience in a professional kitchen, ideally with a strong understanding of Italian cuisine.
  • A genuine passion for fresh food, quality ingredients and traditional cooking.
  • Confidence working independently and taking responsibility for kitchen operations.
  • Good organisational skills and a practical, hands-on approach.
  • Creativity, enthusiasm and a desire to contribute to a growing independent business.
  • A positive attitude and pride in delivering consistently excellent food.

What's On Offer?

  • Salary of £30,000–£40,000, depending on experience (to be confirmed).
  • Sundays off.
  • A kitchen where evening service rarely runs beyond 8.30pm.
  • The opportunity to influence menus and develop the food offering.
  • A supportive, independent business with genuine room to make your mark.
  • A friendly working environment where your ideas and contribution will be valued.

Interested?

If you're an enthusiastic chef who loves Italian food and would enjoy being part of a growing independent business, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today with your CV for a confidential conversation about the opportunity.

Pay: £30,000.00-£40,000.00 per year
