For over 60 years, the Half Moon has been at the forefront of Londons grassroots music scene, some rumours even say much longer! From hosting Kate Bush's first ever sold out show, to the gig with which Lola Young was signed, from Ed Sheeran's support slot to the reocurring home of the Rolling Stones from the 70's all the way to modern day, from U2's first ever London show to Cat Burns debut on our stage and many, many more inbetween. All their names are etched into the walls, floors and brickwork of the building, but so too are all of those that hosted, served, cooked and looked after them and the millions of gig goers as well.
As we complete the biggest refurb the venue has ever seen, and one of the biggest for any grassroots venue in the UK this year, we will shortly be reopening our doors and we are looking for a couple of superstars of our own. As our socials show, our reviews describe and the team themself will tell you, working at the Half Moon is unlike most hospitality jobs. Never one to throw around the term 'pub family' or blow our trumpets (we leave that to the acts themselves), we are a tight-knit, caring community that looks after each other - as a GM, in my 20+ years in management, it is genuinely one of the best teams I've ever had the pleasure to be a part of.
We care less about experience, and more about personality - a basic understanding of the role is required - the rest we can teach, but we can't teach you how to be a rockstar; like any any decent ballad will tell you, that comes from within! And don't worry if it's your first forray into bar work; our team will help you, train you and (most importantly) support you, every step of the way! Of our 35+ 'moonies', over 80% have been with us for over 2 years, including the kitchen team, but even those that are the newest feel like they've been with us since we started this latest journey!
What we offer our Chefs de Partie:
What we look for in a Chef de Partie:
We are looking for an existing Chef de Partie or an excellent Commis Chef looking for their next step, who considers themselves to have a passion and flare for producing quality fresh food in an environment that makes people feel welcome. As the successful Chef de Partie you will:
