  • Clean and sanitise pizza pans, preparation surfaces, utensils, ovens, and equipment.
  • Monitor stock levels and inform the supervisor when ingredients need replenishing.
  • Handle busy service periods efficiently while maintaining product quality.
  • Follow restaurant recipes, SOPs, and brand standards consistently.
  • Work closely with kitchen and front-of-house teams to ensure orders are prepared on time.
  • Assist with opening and closing procedures for the pizza station.

Qualifications

  • Good knowledge of pizza dough preparation, proofing, stretching, topping, and baking.
  • Experience working with commercial pizza ovens and kitchen equipment.
  • Understanding of food hygiene, food safety, FIFO, and proper food storage procedures.
  • Ability to follow Cheezious recipes, portion sizes, cooking times, and presentation standards consistently.
  • Ability to work quickly and accurately during busy service periods.
  • Good understanding of portion control and waste reduction.
  • Strong attention to quality, cleanliness, and presentation.
  • Ability to work effectively as part of a kitchen team.
  • Good communication and time-management skills.
  • Willingness to work flexible shifts, including evenings, weekends, and public holidays.
