Head Chef

London

Our people. They’re the most important part of Megan’s and what separates us from everyone else. Sure, we’ve got delicious food inspired by the Eastern Mediterranean & freshly made in our kitchens, stunning interiors and fantastic opportunities for progression. But ask anyone who works here the best thing about it and they’ll tell you: it’s the team.

We’re opening new restaurants in fantastic neighbourhoods across the South, so due to our continued growth & expansion we’re now looking for a Head Chef for our beautiful site on Kensington High Street.

What’s in it for you?

Pay

On target earnings (OTE) salary package of up to £60,000 per year (combined fixed annual salary plus tronc)

Uncapped earning potential based on site performance

Benefits

50% off when visiting with your friends & family

Amazing team socials

Long service awards

Access to our comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme including a free, confidential helpline/webchat available all day, every day of the year

Early access to your pay if required through WageStream

All the good stuff you’d expect like auto-enrolment in our pension scheme and free fantastic meals & drinks on shifts

Career progression

Ongoing professional training & development, with real career progression

Freedom to get involved with new openings

Opportunity to move between sites and grow with the group

We’re looking for an experienced Head Chef – you’ll need to have worked with fresh ingredients, be calm under pressure, know how to control your margins and be at your happiest when training, inspiring & developing a happy team. Ideally you’ll have worked in a similar premium branded fresh food kitchen environment, so we’d love to hear from you if you’ve been the Kitchen Manager or Head Chef of a restaurant or gastro pub. But if you’ve got a different background don’t let that stop you from hitting that apply button!
