What does it take to join our team?

A love of food. The ability to pick up new skills quickly and get on with everyone. A can-do attitude and being a team player will help you thrive in the fast paced environment where we all pull together so our guests get a perfectly cooked meal every time. If you’ve worked in a busy kitchen before, maybe as a kitchen porter, that helps. But with our fantastic training, we can teach you all you need to know.
