We provide quality-tested products for the kitchen and table, alongside in-depth knowledge, advice and inspiration through our stores, online shop, and cook school.

We search within the UK and around the world for the best products; each piece is meticulously chosen and tested based on function, quality, and durability.

We’re looking for someone who feels at home in the kitchen and enjoys sharing that with others. You’re a confident communicator who likes explaining not just how things are done, but why.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Host our guests in a warm and friendly environment
  • Confident communicator who enjoys sharing skills and knowledge, focusing on the why not just the how.
  • Prepare cooking classes, ensuring all ingredients and equipment are ready with a focus on cleanliness, safety, and efficiency
  • Deliver engaging and informative cooking classes and demonstrations
  • Host our guests in a warm and friendly environment
  • Provide excellent customer service, answering any questions and ensuring a positive experience for guests
  • Maintain a clean and organised cooking area
  • Adhere to food safety and hygiene standards
  • Clean down after classes together with the Cook School Assistant

Requirements

  • Excellent cooking skills and knowledge of various cuisines and techniques
  • Proven experience as a professional chef or culinary instructor
  • Passion for food and cooking, with a desire to share knowledge and inspire others
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Ability to work well in a team environment
  • Flexibility to work evenings and weekends as needed
  • Food hygiene and safety certification is a plus

Benefits

  • Industry-leading discounts across our portfolio of trusted, high-quality brands
  • Complimentary Cook School classes
  • Longevity holiday benefit for our longstanding team members
  • Option to purchase additional annual leave
  • Free access to our comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) providing 24/7 confidential advice to support your wellbeing and provide expert guidance and resources whenever you or your family need it
  • Optional BUPA Private Medical Insurance, employee-funded through salary sacrifice

We are a proud London Living Wage employer. This accreditation reflects our commitment to supporting our team not just as employees, but as valued experts in cooking and dining.

Borough Kitchen is an equal opportunities employer. We are committed to treating all our employees fairly, regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, marital status, religion, nationality, ethnicity, age, or physical abilities. We value and respect every team member, whether you're part-time or on a fixed-term contract.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
