We're looking for a Kitchen Porter to join the team at The Old Queen's Head.
The Old Queen's Head is an award-winning North London pub that moves between great food, proper pints and late nights. We serve one of the area's most popular Sunday roasts, we've recently launched our in-house pizza concept Hot Saint, and our club room hosts DJs and late-night parties throughout the week.
It's a pub with a lot going on. A busy kitchen, high standards, and a team that takes real pride in what they do. We're looking for someone reliable, hardworking and switched on who wants to be part of a fast-paced kitchen and play a key role behind the scenes.
