Opening in early 2026 on Upper Grosvenor Street, MA/NA is born from the Japanese philosophy that every ingredient carries an invisible power — a life-force shaped by nature and the hands that honour it.

‘Mana’ is the spiritual energy that exists beneath the surface of all things. It is felt rather than seen — transforming emotion into experience, and a meal into memory.

Guided by this belief, MA/NA will offer a seamless blend of restaurant and bar, refined Japanese dishes alongside an exceptional cocktail, wine and sake list. Here, cocktails flow effortlessly into dinner, and dinner naturally returns to drinks.

Every element of MA/NA, from design and service to sound and light, is intentional. Each detail celebrates the extraordinary within the simple.

As Pastry Demi Chef de Partie, you will support the Pastry Chef de Partie and Head Pastry Chef in delivering MA/NA’s dessert and pastry offering to the highest standard.

You will contribute to prep and service across sections with care, consistency and attention to detail, developing your technical skills while learning advanced techniques in a calm, disciplined kitchen environment. This role is ideal for a pastry professional ready to grow within a refined, creative team.

• Previous experience as a Pastry Demi Chef de Partie or strong Pastry Commis in a high-end or fine dining environment
• Passion for refined desserts, Japanese flavours and modern pastry techniques
• Strong foundational pastry skills with attention to detail and presentation
• Good organisation and composure during service
• A positive attitude, curiosity and commitment to learning

• Competitive salary and service charge
• Opportunities for growth and progression within the Thesleff Group
• Training under experienced senior chefs with international backgrounds
• Staff meals and wellness initiatives
• A respectful, collaborative working environment focused on craft and excellence

If you’re inspired by balance, texture, creativity and detail — and want to grow within a pastry team that celebrates the extraordinary within the simple — we’d love to hear from you.
