WE'RE LOOKING FOR A HEAD CHEF
Tamper Coffee is looking for an experienced, creative Head Chef to lead the kitchen at our flagship Sellers Wheel site in Sheffield.
We're a busy, established independent known for New Zealand & Australasian-inspired brunch, exceptional coffee, and proper fresh food.
We're looking for someone who can lead a high-volume kitchen, develop a great team, and bring their own ideas and creativity to the food.
You might already be an experienced Head Chef — or you could be a strong Senior Sous ready to step up and take ownership of a kitchen.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
