Chef Job

Chef Position – Southwater, West Sussex

Salary: £12.50–£14.50 per hour (depending on experience)

Contract Type: Permanent

Hours: Approx. 30 hours per week (Tuesday–Sunday; closed Mondays)

Are you a calm, organised, and passionate chef looking for a fresh opportunity? We’re a busy, independently owned modern pub just outside Horsham, serving high-quality, authentic Greek cuisine. As our new chef, you’ll take full responsibility for the kitchen, working independently to deliver outstanding dishes both in-house and through our growing delivery service.

About the Role:

You’ll be the sole chef in the kitchen, preparing fresh, traditional Greek favourites — like gyros and halloumi fries — using top-quality ingredients imported directly from Greece. This is a fantastic role for someone confident working solo, who takes pride in delivering great food in a clean, well-run kitchen.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive pay – £12.50 to £14.50 per hour, based on experience

  • Career development – Opportunities to grow as the business expands

  • Full support – Recipes, training, and onboarding provided to set you up for success

Key Responsibilities:

  • Independently prepare and present authentic Greek dishes to a high standard

  • Manage the kitchen’s hygiene, stock, and organisation

  • Fulfil online delivery orders efficiently (Deliveroo, Uber Eats, Just Eat)

  • Follow customer notes and modifications carefully

  • Keep calm and organised during busy periods

  • Maintain health and safety standards throughout the kitchen

What We’re Looking For:

  • Experience as a Cook, CDP, or Junior Sous Chef, ideally in pubs, takeaways, or casual dining

  • Comfortable running a kitchen solo, with good time management

  • A proactive mindset and a passion for great food

  • Flexibility to work evenings and weekends (Tuesday–Sunday rota)

Apply Now:

If you’re ready to step into a hands-on, independent role in a friendly, growing business, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today to join our Southwater team and help us serve exciting, authentic Greek food to a loyal and growing customer base.
