Itsu Kitchen Manager

Scoffs - Itsu Kitchen Manager

Lead the kitchen. Feed the city.

We're looking for a hands on Kitchen Manager who lives and breathes great food - someone who takes pride in every plate, leads a tight knit team and keeps the heart of our restaurant beating.

The role is built around four things:

• People - Build a skilled, passionate kitchen crew. You'll coach, train and develop every chef and food pro, creating a team that genuinely cares about what they make.
• Hospitality - Great food is hospitality. You'll make sure the kitchen delivers beautiful, consistent food from open to close - because every customer deserves their best bite.
• Quality - You're the guardian of our recipes, our standards and our kitchen. Correct to recipe, food safe, spotlessly clean - no compromises.
• Profitability - From prep planning to portioning, ordering to waste, you'll run a smart, efficient kitchen that never sacrifices quality for cost.

What you'll be doing:

• Running the kitchen day to day - production, prep, service and close.
• Making sure every dish leaves the kitchen exactly as it should, every time.
• Owning the production plan and adjusting it to hit availability without piling up waste.
• Ordering ingredients smartly to keep the kitchen stocked and waste low.
• Leading on food safety - FIFO, date codes, due diligence and a 5 star EHO rating as the standard.
• Developing your team through hands on training, regular 1 2 1s and real progression pathways.
• Smashing mystery shopper scores with consistently brilliant food and kitchen standards.
• Keeping a kitchen so clean it gleams - CATC and CAYG are second nature to you.

You're the kind of person who:

• Gets a buzz from a fast, well run kitchen.
• Holds the standard even when it's busy and the pressure is on.
• Takes real pride in the food that goes out - every single order.
• Spots what needs fixing and just sorts it.
