South East London, London, United Kingdom Grind Co Full time

Abit about us.

Grind is a hospitality company that lives in London. Since opening Shoreditch Grind in 2011, the brand has expanded across London with restaurants and café-bars, burning the candle at both ends to serve coffee, food, and cocktails to a killer soundtrack.

Our cafés and coffee shops were where Grind all began, and they're still the beating heart of Grind. They're vibrant, exciting and sometimes high-pressure places to work.

We think coffee can be a force for good. Whether it's through creating the UK's first compostable coffee pods, our plastic-free packaging or carbon-free shipping - we're on a mission to be the world's most sustainable coffee company.
In 2023, we created our charity, the Better Coffee Foundation, to undo the damage done by the global coffee industry - in our first year, we recovered 43 million pods' worth of ocean-bound plastic.


A bit about the role.

We are looking for a passionate and talented Sous Chef to help lead our Grind kitchen in Greenwich which is busy, fast paced and full of energy. Our Greenwich site offers all-day dining Monday to Sunday with an evening service Thursday to Sunday. Our focus is always on using fresh seasonal produce to develop a dynamic menu.

Your role as Sous Chef would involve working alongside your Head Chef to lead the kitchen team on a day-to-day basis. You must ensure that quality, consistency and speed of service are upheld at all times, and help to enhance development among a team of aspiring chefs. You must also be able to competently manage all kitchen operation duties in the absence of the Head Chef.

As a Sous Chef, you need to be able to demonstrate a good all round approach to running a fast paced restaurant; ideally we are looking for someone who can keep their cool, have fun and make amazing food, fast and under pressure.

If you love working with seasonal produce, have experience with food costing, H&S, and amazing attention to detail we would love to hear from you
