Description

Since we opened our doors in London in 2011, Granger & Co. has brought the relaxed, sunny Australian way of dining to the city. Our restaurants reflect the spirit that Bill Granger made known around the world: easy-going, generous excellence.

Our food makes people feel good. It is full of flavour, goodness and vitality. We thoughtfully source the best possible ingredients with a sunny, colourful lightness, and the emotional comfort of food is as important to us as how it looks and tastes. We celebrate seasonality, champion local growers and suppliers and prioritise ingredients grown with care for the world.

As a family-owned restaurant group that is constantly evolving, we value all employees as respected individuals and foster diversity and inclusion, with everyone given a chance to share their voice and ideas. People stay with us and grow with us, many for over a decade.

Sustainability is considered in everything we do.

ABOUT US

Since we opened our doors in London in 2011, Granger & Co. has brought the relaxed, sunny Australian way of dining to the city.

Our food and drink make people feel good. We thoughtfully source the best possible ingredients, celebrate seasonality, champion local growers and suppliers, and prioritise ingredients grown with care for the world.

As a family-owned restaurant group, we value all employees as respected individuals and foster diversity and inclusion, with everyone given a chance to share their voice and ideas.

THE ROLE

The heart of the role is delivering exceptional food by leading, training and developing your kitchen brigade with care, consistency and creativity.

As Head Chef, you will oversee the quality and consistency of our food offering, manage your kitchen team, drive operational and commercial standards, and support menu development.

We understand that balance looks different for everyone, and the role can be designed with flexibility in mind.

ABOUT YOU

You love food, from the joy of eating it to understanding how it is grown and produced. You value the discipline of cooking and take pride in passing that knowledge on. Calm under pressure, precise and organised, you are happiest when working with beautiful produce and leading a kitchen that runs smoothly.

You are a warm and approachable leader who inspires through example and enjoys helping the team learn and grow. You understand flavour balance, work confidently with beautiful produce, and care about seasonality, sustainable sourcing and cooking with whole ingredients.

A knowledge of Australian food, its origins and an interest in the people and stories that shape hospitality is welcome. Our restaurants are busy environments and a sense of confidence in that setting is ideal. Above all though, you care about flavour, learning and generosity. Formal training is not essential, experience, curiosity and attitude matter just as much.

We particularly welcome applications from women, who are under-represented in senior kitchen roles across our industry, and we are committed to changing that.

WHAT WE OFFER

·       A real work-life balance in a people-first business.

·       An additional day of holiday for every year of service after two years.

·       Wellbeing support and private GP services through Hospitality Rewards.

·       Freshly made staff meals every shift.

·       50% off when you dine in our restaurants (for up to four people).

·       Cycle to work scheme.

·       Enhanced maternity pay.

·       Ongoing learning opportunities, including visits to the farms and producers we work with.

If this role excites you, but do not feel you meet every requirement, we would still love to hear from you. Qualifications are not everything here. We care just as much about experience, curiosity, creativity and the way you work with others. Relevant training is welcomed but not essential. We believe great chefs and leaders come through many different paths, and we are always interested in people with something distinctive to bring.
