  • Flexible shifts with part and full time options

We are looking for an enthusiastic Commis Chef to join our friendly kitchen team at our St Petroc's Bistro in Padstow, Cornwall.  

We see ourselves as being in the 'cheering up industry' trying to make people smile with great food, drink and experiences.  

Under the leadership of legendary Head Chef Mark O'Hagan, you'll be helping the team, using the very best, locally sourced ingredients to prepare rick's famous seafood dishes inspired by his travels around the world. No experience is necessary as we will give you all the tools and training you need. 

 

What you’ll be getting up to  

  • Food preparation and making basic sauces 
  • Learning how to work the different sections in the kitchen 
  • Supporting the senior kitchen team 
  • Learning and being inspired by our senior chefs to progress to the next level 

 

Grow your career with us  
We're not just passionate about food, we're passionate about developing our people too.  Many of our Head Chefs have worked their way up through the chef ranks from kitchen porter so they know exactly how to support and develop your chef career with us. 75% of our managers have been promoted from within and we want to help you fulfil your potential. We'll invest in you with:  

 

  • Craft skills and training (wine and food tastings, supplier visits) to develop your knowledge and confidence 
  • Opportunities to move between parts of our business 
  • Encouragement to apply for bigger roles when the time is right 
  • Regular encouragement and support from your manager 

  

Perks 

  • Flexible shifts. Family time and work/life balance is important to us, we'll work with you to find the shifts that work for your lifestyle, and full time employees can request to work a four-day week.  
  • Brilliant tips. On top of your salary you'll earn tips and these are paid weekly into your bank, aren't subject to NI deductions and you'll even get tips when you're on holiday!  
  • Staff discounts. You'll get 50% off in our restaurants, 20% in our shops and online and discounted hotel stays and cookery courses.  
  • Free meal for two. After one year with us, you'll get a complimentary 3 course meal for two people in one of our restaurants every year.  
  • Social events. You'll get the chance to meet Rick and the family at fun social events and parties.  
  • Plenty of food. We provide great quality meals whilst on duty, the chance to taste all our dishes as well drinks and snacks whilst you're on a break.  
  • Staff surprises. We like to make you smile, so there'll be little treats from us throughout the year. We've recently given all our staff a £25 voucher and a free Stein's at home 3 course meal box to enjoy at home.  
  • Holiday. You'll get 28 days paid holiday every year which starts to increase after 2 years.
