Kitchen Manager
We are The Salad Project, London’s answer to healthy food and a fresh outlook on how we live, feel and eat. Our founders Florian and James opened the doors to our first store in the summer of 2021. Today, we are a twelve store operation, expanding across London.
At The Salad Project, our passion goes beyond the quality of our food. We are equally committed to finding and nurturing our staff, so we are on the hunt for exceptional managers to join our team. We’re looking for people committed to taking the next step in their career, keen to join a company whose growth trajectory opens up hundreds of inspiring development opportunities - and whose current team can’t wait for you to join the family.
