We are looking for a kitchen porter who is ready for a new challenge and enjoys being an active member of the kitchen team. If you want an opportunity to develop new skills and grow within a fast paced, driven environment then this is the ideal role for you. 

Only 20 minutes from the city, The Red Lion is an eclectic, warm, and welcoming public house which has been serving locals since around 1870.
Our 10 bedroom boutique hotel places an emphasis on vintage glamour with decorative wallpapers, antique furniture and luxurious fabric to guarantee an enjoyable stay with us. Our gorgeous antique ballroom provides a perfect setting for weddings, birthdays or big parties, while our secret beer garden is great for soaking up the sunshine and enjoying a selection of dishes from our kitchen ranging from pub classics to a banging Sunday roast.

A pub at the heart of the community.  

Welcome to London's biggest independent pub company.

Urban Pubs & Bars was founded in 2014 by Nick Pring and Malcolm Heap and has since expanded to an estate of over 67 pubs, bars and restaurants across London.
‍
Our ethos focuses on acquiring the best sites in the right locations and recruiting exceptional talent who are as passionate about food and drink as we are. Establishing the right offer and investing in the right areas is key, whilst devoting time and attention to the team that operates those sites is a major part of that investment.

In 2018, Urban Pubs & Bars was ranked number 28 in the Sunday Times Virgin Atlantic Fast Track 100 list, recognising Britain's private companies with the fastest-growing sales. We were then nominated for 2 Publican Awards in 2020, winning the award for ‘Best Managed Pub Company - 2-50 sites’ on the night. In 2021, Urban was awarded 'Best Food-led Pub Company 2021' at the R200 awards, Urban once again won ‘Best Managed Pub Company - 2-50 sites’ in 2023 and most recently won ‘Best Managed Pub Company - 2-50 sites’ and Best food offering in 2026

In 2025 & 2026 we were recognised by Sunday Times in the Top 100 Companies to work for.
‍
Our teams play a pivotal role in creating an eclectic mix of unique establishments all with a friendly atmosphere, delicious food and great service all at the heart of what we value. Ensuring each site’s valued position within its local community. 

You Are:

• Able to communicate well and follow direction from the Head Chef and all members of the kitchen
• Looking to grow and progress in the kitchen
• Confident to try new things
• Willing to work as part of a kitchen team

What's in it for me:

• Training and development
• Career progression and promotion opportunities with regular new openings around the corner
• Get out and about, you automatically get discounts across all our pubs, bars and restaurants
• Team trips, regular incentives and socials – a fun, family atmosphere
• Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) to support you across those tough times
• Good people know good people - an awesome referral scheme where you can earn up to £1000 per successful referral
