The Company:

Vapiano is a laid-back Italian restaurant, making the ultimate handmade fresh pasta, pizza and insalata in over 130 locations around the world and 6 here in the UK. Our restaurants are like nowhere else; spacious, full of natural light with plenty of seats – think sharing tables and lounge seating. You can sit where you like and stay as long as you want. The laid-back vibes and great music make us one of the places to go and eat. Our service is relaxed, inviting and casual, just like our locations, with orders usually taken by via QR codes at the table, and table service from the team following on from there. We are a growing hospitality company with multiple locations planned to open each year ahead.

The Role:

If you have a few years of experience of working in a restaurant kitchen you will (hopefully) already understand the role well, however for us, the key responsibilities you will have are:

• Experience - ensuring that the Vapiano food service is always on point. Food delivered to customers at the correct speed and to spec - We really mean this, it isn't just lip service; check out our reviews!

• Safety - working in line with our food, health and safety and fire safety policies and practices to keep our kitchens above board.

• People - Open kitchens mean we work as one team. Working closely with both front-of-house teams, other chefs and KPs to create a seamless dining experience for our guests, together without ego.

What this role is:

You will be a key player in our kitchen, directly contributing to our commitment to food service excellence. Under the guidance of the Kitchen Manager, you will be responsible for preparing dishes that meet our high standards of speed, quality and taste. Your role involves following recipes to spec, maintaining food safety and cleanliness, and working efficiently to manage your section, whether it's the pasta station or another area. Your ability to work well under pressure and as part of a team will ensure that our kitchen operations run smoothly and our guests receive exceptional dining experiences.

You will likely have:

• Real previous chef experience in a high-volume branded pizza, pasta or Italian operation.

• Worked in larger branded operations, but spent some time in a smaller growing business too.

• Desire to be part of a team and work together for the greater good.

• A calm, fun and caring character.

• Excellent attention to detail and a real ability to get the right things done at the right time.

• A personal love of the art of hospitality; you actually delight in food service and making people happy.
