The Casting Call – Grill Chef
Your role in the show – Joining the team at MyLahore means that you are part of the MyLahore team. When we invite friends and team into our homes, we think of them as guests, and we act accordingly. So, when our guests choose to come and dine with us, we treat them like their guests in our house.
At MyLahore we promise to provide a “welcomtastic” place for all our guests and our teams, and being cast in the role of a grill chef in the team means that you’ll be the key to making this promise a reality, time and time again.
Sure, you’ll be carrying out all cooking duties, including preparation and maintenance of all equipment. You will also be responsible for keeping high-quality standards throughout the kitchen and preparation areas including cleanliness, plate presentation, stock ordering, and cost control. But far more important is how you view your role in helping our guests have the most incredible experience possible when they’re with us. You and your colleagues are the face of MyLahore to our guests, the heart and soul of how we do what we do.
You’ll work closely with your fellow MyLahore team members, ensuring the highest standards are met and exceeded; driving our guest's experience into orbit which in turn makes all of us successful. And, you’ll be having fun whilst you work because having guests over to eat should never be a chore, right?!
Who’s the big cheese? Everybody wants to know who their boss will be and, in your role, ultimately, it’ll be the Team Leader who will take care of you, giving you direction, recognition, and support. They are supported by Shift Leaders, who are also there to coach, support, and motivate the team to deliver the kind of guest experience we aspire to.
What will I do? The first, second, and third priorities of your role are providing an outstanding guest experience through providing ‘superlicious’ meals for our guests and fellow team members. Naturally, there are many activities and duties that, taken together, ensure we can deliver the guest experience we’ve described. Here’s an example of some of the most important and consistent tasks that you’ll be responsible for:
