Job Description

Head Chef – High-Volume – South West London – 50k–£55k

Bold Southeast Asian flavours. Big energy. A kitchen that never stops.


We're on the hunt for a Head Chef who loves the buzz of a busy service and knows how to lead from the front. This is a premium casual spot in South West London – think bold, shareable dishes, packed dining room, and a kitchen that runs at full speed.


The site's already got a loyal following. The menu's built around big flavours, comfort food, and consistency. Now we just need the right chef to steer the ship.


What you'll be doing:

  • Running the senior kitchen team and leading service
  • Keeping standards high, even when it's slammed
  • Managing stock, ordering, and the kitchen crew
  • Making sure every dish tastes exactly how it should – every time


Who you are:

  • You've been a Head Chef (or a very strong Senior Sous) in a busy, high-volume kitchen
  • You know your way around Southeast Asian flavours – or you're ready to dive in
  • You're calm when it's busy, organised when it's not, and always reliable
  • You get that great food starts with a great team – and you're good at building both


Why join?

  • 50k–55k
  • A well-established site with a great reputation
  • A proper kitchen team, not a one-man show
  • The chance to cook bold, exciting food at scale
