Kitchen Manager

Description

We're going to assume if you're looking at this, you reckon you can do the job... so we're going to keep things simple.

We are on a mission to take The Pint to another level. Great food, great people, and genuine hospitality. We're looking for an experienced Kitchen Manager to lead our kitchen team and help drive the next chapter of our growth.

This isn't just about cooking. It's about leadership, standards, organization, and creating an environment where people enjoy coming to work and guests enjoy coming back.

What We're Looking For...

Passion

You work in hospitality because you love it. You care about quality, consistency, and doing things properly. You take pride in your kitchen, your team, and the food that leaves the pass.

Family

You lead by example. You support your team, develop people, and create a culture built on respect and accountability. No egos. No shouting. Just people looking after one another and pulling in the same direction.

Integrity

You do the right thing, even when nobody's watching. You're honest, dependable, and straightforward. You hold yourself and your team to high standards without creating unnecessary drama.

Commitment

You show up ready to lead. Your energy sets the tone for the kitchen. You thrive in a fast-paced environment and understand what it takes to deliver consistently great guest experiences.

What You'll Be Responsible For...

• Leading, coaching, and developing the kitchen team
• Managing food quality, consistency, and presentation standards
• Scheduling and labour management
• Inventory control, ordering, and food cost management
• Maintaining food safety and sanitation standards
• Supporting menu development and seasonal features
• Working closely with the management team to drive sales and profitability
• Creating a positive, professional kitchen culture

What You Get In Return...

• Competitive salary based on experience
• Performance-based bonus opportunities
• We don't believe in the dreaded 9 'til close
• Free meals while working
• 30% off food and beverage when you're not
• Flexible scheduling
• Growth opportunities within a growing hospitality group

There's more, of course, but we'll leave that for another conversation.
