Sous Chef – Rok, Mumbles
? Mumbles, Swansea
? £45,000 per year (including service charge)
?   4-Day Working Week

Join one of Wales' most exciting kitchens.

Rok is an acclaimed restaurant at the heart of Bracelet Bay, Mumbles and currently the areas number 1 restaurant on TripAdvisor. 

Known for bold, seasonal cooking with a focus on open-fire techniques and the best of Welsh produce. We pride ourselves on a stripped-back, ingredient-led style - think local meat and seafood, earthy vegetables, and punchy flavours, all cooked over flame.

• Oversee prep and day-to-day operations, maintaining efficiency and flow in the kitchen
• Contribute to menu development, bringing ideas, creativity, and knowledge of seasonal produce
• Ensure food safety and hygiene standards are always upheld
• Manage stock, ordering and suppliers alongside the Head Chef
• Work as a positive role model, keeping morale high and communication clear

Why Rok?

• £45,000 per year (including service charge)
• 4-day working week
• A forward-thinking food culture rooted in sustainability and seasonality
• Opportunities to develop your career and influence the future of the kitchen
• A warm, respectful team culture - no egos, no drama
• Stunning seaside location with fresh local ingredients on our doorstep

What We’re Looking For

• A passionate, professional chef with experience in high-quality kitchens
• Leadership qualities: calm under pressure, organised, supportive
• A strong understanding of seasonality, local sourcing and modern cooking techniques
• Someone who wants to contribute to something special - not just clock in and out
