The Role
We're recruiting a Sous Chef for one of Edinburgh West End's most popular neighbourhood venues — a busy bar and kitchen known for Scottish tapas, small plates, brunch, and Sunday roasts with a genuinely loyal following.
This is a hands-on number two position, working closely with the Head Chef to keep standards high, the team sharp, and service running smoothly across a varied weekly offering.
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.
What We're Looking For
- Solid Sous Chef or strong Senior CDP ready to step up
- Experience in a quality, fresh food kitchen — small plates or similar a bonus
- Someone who leads from the front and takes ownership of the pass
- Confident with food cost, prep management, and kitchen organisation
- A team player who brings energy, not just ability

- Strong OTE with a transparent tronc scheme

- Fresh, seasonal cooking — no frozen shortcuts
- Natural progression within a growing, independent company
