Loughborough Students’ Union (LSU) is looking for a capable Kitchen Manager or Chef
LSU is looking for a capable Kitchen Manager or Chef to take the lead on the food operation within our main Commercial Kitchen serving The Kitchen, Humpit, and JC’s’ Outlets.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys being in the kitchen and producing great food, but who also wants the opportunity to take ownership of the operational output. You’ll lead food service day-to-day, manage a team of casual catering assistants, ensure high kitchen standards, and help us build a food offer that our students genuinely want to come back for.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The outlet also provides catering for large hospitality events and bookings throughout the year, producing anything from buffet style service, to 3-course dinners and BBQs.
This isn’t a traditional restaurant or pub kitchen, you’ll be joining an operation where there is genuine opportunity to shape and develop our food offer.
