Job Description

THE ROLE

This is a full-time position with a mix of daytime, evening and weekend shifts.

ABOUT US

Since we opened our doors in London in 2011, Granger & Co. has brought the relaxed, sunny Australian way of dining to the city. Our restaurants reflect the spirit that Bill Granger made known around the world: easy-going, generous excellence.

Our food makes people feel good. It is full of flavour, goodness and vitality. We thoughtfully source the best possible ingredients and the emotional comfort of food is as important to us as how it looks and tastes. We celebrate seasonality, champion local growers and suppliers and prioritise ingredients grown with care.

As a family-owned restaurant group that is constantly evolving, we value all employees as respected individuals and foster diversity and inclusion, with everyone given a chance to share their voice and ideas. People stay with us and grow with us, many for over a decade. We are committed to parity.

Sustainability is considered in everything we do.

WHAT WE OFFER

• A real work-life balance in a people-first business: a firm cap on hours, with overtime counting towards time in lieu and scheduled admin shifts every week
• Enhanced maternity pay
• Ongoing learning opportunities and visits to the farms and producers we work with
• An additional day of holiday for every year of service after two years.
• Access to wellbeing support and private GP services through Hospitality Rewards.
• 50% off when you dine in our restaurants (for up to four people).
• Cycle to work scheme.

ABOUT YOU

You are a warm and approachable leader who inspires through example and enjoys helping the team grow. You care about seasonality, sustainable sourcing and cooking with whole 

Our restaurants are busy environments and a sense an ability to thrive in that environment is essential. Above all though, you care about flavour, learning and generosity.

We particularly welcome applications from women, who are under-represented in senior kitchen roles across our industry, and we are committed to changing that.

If this role excites you, but do not feel you meet every requirement, we would still love to hear from you. Qualifications are not everything here. We care just as much about experience, curiosity, creativity and the way you work with others. Relevant training is welcomed but not essential. We believe great chefs and leaders come through many different paths, and we are always interested in people with something distinctive to bring.
