Being a Kitchen Manager in Locals is all about delivering an exceptional, unique experience to our customers, with our quality food that complements our local ales and fine wines. As a Kitchen Manager, you will have full responsibility for the food that leaves our kitchens and also developing and leading your team to be the best they can be.

For a Kitchen Manager in Greene King Locals the rewards are great - from salary package, progression and training opportunities, to the reward and recognition from your manager and team. You will be joining the UK's largest pub & brewery, so you'll have plenty of opportunities to progress, and we will support you every step of the way.

If you have previous experience as a Kitchen Manager, Head Chef or Kitchen Team Leader, we could offer you a fulfilling leadership role, and the opportunity to build a successful career.

About the role

The Cornerstone is situated within a busy shopping centre within Kingston Upon Thames, which is a bustling market town, beautifully situated on the banks of the River Thames. With an abundance of both independent and big-name retailers, an impressive heritage and a bustling ancient marketplace, there is plenty to celebrate in Kingston & all just 12 miles from central London and within easy reach of the M25

.
After putting some thought into site branding and demographical fit, Greene King Locals have acquired the fantastic site from the Hungry Horse brand within Greene King Destinations as there is a real opportunity to cater to the local community by re branding and re launching the Cornerstone as a 'Proper Local's pub! to Greene King Which in hand, makes total sense due to the main customer base being the local residents of Kingston.
We are recruiting a full Pub Leadership Team; including a General Manager, Assistant Manager & Kitchen Manager - which will then lead to a staff member recruitment campaign delivered by the successful candidates.

The site had a large take when it was branded with Hungry Horse of around 15k + per week. With a mostly wet led customer base (60% Liquor / 40% Food), we anticipate that with a new brand launch and a fully comprehensive PLT, FOH & BOH team, we will be able to get the Cornerstone back on the map and smash those 15k sales!

Ideally, the right Kitchen Manager will have experience within a busy city centre managed pub, experience working with high volumes, is massively passionate about people and is ultimately ready to get stuck into an exciting brand re launch!
