Kitchen Manager
Royal Victoria Dock, London E16
£40,000 to £45,000 + tronc

We are looking for a Kitchen Manager for a busy pub, restaurant and events venue beside ExCeL London.

This is a great role for someone who enjoys structure, team building and high-volume service, without wanting a fine dining kitchen or an old-school chef environment.

The site has a strong food trade, with a mix of pub classics, fresh dishes, Sunday roasts, buffets, canapés and corporate events.

The kitchen needs a calm, organised leader who can bring people together, keep standards consistent and make service run smoothly.

You will work closely with the General Manager and wider team to plan around the ExCeL event calendar, so no two weeks feel the same. Some days are steady, some are very busy, and the best person for this role will enjoy that variety.

What we are looking for:

• Kitchen Manager, Head Chef or strong Sous Chef ready for the next step
• Experience in a busy pub, bar, restaurant, events venue or branded operation
• Someone who is calm on the pass and good with people
• Strong standards around food quality, prep and service
• Good understanding of stock, ordering, GP and waste
• Confident with food safety, allergens and kitchen paperwork
• A leader who can train, support and get the best out of the team

This is not about reinventing everything overnight.

It is about bringing routine, pride and consistency into a kitchen that has plenty of potential.

You will suit this role if you like being hands-on, enjoy busy service and want a site where you can make a genuine difference.

Package:

• £40,000 to £45,000 base salary
• Tronc on top
• 45-hour contract
• 5 days on, 2 days off
• 28 days holiday
• Meals on duty
• Company discount
• Training and development support
