"Put Your Heart into It"

£13.50 - £14.50 per hour, depending on experience and skill level - plus tronc/tips & perks!

Are you ready to take the next step in your culinary journey and lead with heart? At Prezzo Italian, we’re looking for a talented Sous Chef who thrives in a vibrant kitchen, inspires their team, and brings passion, precision, and pride to every plate. Join us and be part of a team that lives and breathes our HEART culture – creating memorable food experiences that bring people together.

As a Sous Chef, you’ll help set the pace and the standard, keeping service smooth and the team motivated. From leading shifts to supporting daily operations, you’ll bring hands on energy and attention to every part of the kitchen.

What You’ll Do:

Set the standard by delivering exceptional dishes that embody our Hospitality Magic ethos – while guiding, training, and inspiring the kitchen team through hands-on support, shared knowledge, and confidence-building across every section.

Maintain a safe, clean, and well-organised kitchen by following Prezzo Italian’s food safety and hygiene standards, including HACCP policies.

Take ownership of kitchen paperwork – temperature checks, cleaning records, and compliance logs – ensuring accuracy and accountability.

Assist with stock control, portioning, and waste reduction to support sustainable, efficient operations.

Work with the Head Chef to manage service, respond to feedback, and continuously improve.

Support a positive, respectful kitchen culture where teamwork and celebration go hand in hand.

Embrace feedback, develop your leadership skills, and bring energy and resilience to every shift.

Work closely with the front-of-house team to deliver a seamless guest experience.

What We’re Looking For:

Proven experience in a similar role, with strong culinary skills and a passion for food.

A natural leader who motivates others and thrives in a team-first environment.

Excellent attention to detail and commitment to quality.

Strong understanding of kitchen operations, food safety, and compliance.

Flexibility with work hours, including weekends and bank holidays.

Why Join Prezzo Italian?

Access structured training and clear career pathways to advance your skills and career.

Enjoy competitive pay, tronc/tips, benefits, and recognition for your dedication and hard work.

Flexible shifts and a supportive environment to help you balance work with personal life.

Perks that matter - like free meals on shift, big discounts for you and your loved ones, your birthday off, well-being support, and access to exclusive hospitality rewards.

Become part of a team-first business where you’re seen, heard and valued every day.

Ready to join a kitchen that thrives on pride, pace, and purpose – and discover a place where your heart makes the magic? Apply now and discover where you truly belong.
