Lead shifts, ensuring the kitchen runs effectively and safely, manning the pass, keeping an eye on stocks, Health & Safety and Hygiene and delivering food on spec and on time. Always upholding 5 kitchen standards. “You’ll be on it. Like a chef’s bonnet.” The Good Stuff Overtime pay for every hour worked over contracted hours.
