Breakfast Chef

Breakfast Chef The Dog & Fox Wimbledon Village
Up to 15 per hour

Are you a morning person Or more realistically a person whos very good at cooking in the morning

The Dog & Fox is looking for a Breakfast Chef to own our mornings. Were not after someone who can reheat a hash brown with confidence. We want a cook who knows their way around fresh ingredients takes pride in a properly poached egg and understands that hollandaise is a commitment not a sachet.

What youll be doing

• Running the breakfast and brunch service from prep to pass
• Cooking everything fresh: proper eggs good bacon real sourdough and a hollandaise that never splits (or if it does you know how to bring it back)
• Prepping ordering and keeping stock tight so nothing runs out mid-rush
• Keeping your section spotless and your food safety standards higher than the Centre Court roof
• Working with the wider kitchen team to keep standards consistent from first coffee to last orders
• Bringing ideas to the menu. If youve got a better way to do avocado on toast were listening

What were looking for

• Proven experience in a fresh-food kitchen (this is essential not a nice-to-have)
• Confidence running a busy breakfast service on your own
• Solid knowledge of food safety and allergen procedures (Level 2 Food Hygiene or above)
• Calm under pressure. Twenty covers walking in at 9:01 on a Sunday should excite you not frighten you
• Reliability. Breakfast waits for no one and neither do our regulars
• A sense of humour. Youll need it and so will we

Whats in it for you

• Up to 14.5 per hour
• Early starts with your afternoons and evenings your own
• Staff meals (youll probably be cooking them but still)
• Training and real room to grow
• A friendly team in one of the best-loved pubs in Wimbledon Village

About us

If you love fresh food early mornings dont scare you and you can crack an egg one-handed (or are prepared to learn) wed love to hear from you.

Apply now. The eggs arent going to poach themselves.
