Key Responsibilities Asked Of You
- Come pizza-delivery ready: knife skills are essential, so we’ll try out.
- Using provided kitchen infrastructure, independently operate in prepped line stations as an active team member.
- Work with sub teams to prep food and maintain high standards efficiently.
- Ensure clean stations: ensure kitchen areas remain functional while maintaining a consistent hygiene approach.
- Communicate effectively across kitchen shifts – because planning ahead saves work and leaves everyone smiling.
- Adopt and communicate food hygiene practices while keeping up morale.
And of course: Stay unfazed. Our kitchens are the busiest on West London’s South Bank—frequently worked at max capacity, with no assurances of breaks or quieter days.
Who Are We Looking For?
We want an ambitious worker who:
- Has a passion for food.
- Is capable and physical—with the stamina for long shifts.
- Takes pride in teamwork.
- Wants to learn, not just work their way.
- Is blunt and realistic about challenges, but seeks solutions.
Training: That’s what we offer. If Flats is introducing a new product or technique, everybody does induction together, from aspiring commis to experienced brigade.
Good team culture through clarity: smaller teams focusing on bigger sections projects explains more on R3L structure.
So... Are You Up For
A crew where carers, parents, absolute beginners and centuries working flat would all thrive?
Pertinent benefits? Minimum working practices? Expand you ever dream? Getậu?
