Summary

Junior Commis Chef
Location: Bolton area
Venue: High-quality fine dining restaurant
Salary: Up to £24,000 DOE

We’re recruiting for a Junior Commis Chef to join a highly regarded fine dining restaurant in the Bolton area. This is a serious kitchen with high standards, a strong food offering and clear ambitions for awards and future growth.
This role is all about attitude. We’re looking for someone who genuinely wants to learn, improve and build a career in fine dining — not someone just looking for a job.

The Opportunity
You’ll be working within a driven, hard-working kitchen team where standards matter. The right person will be given real exposure, structured development and clear progression, but effort, commitment and consistency are non-negotiable.

Who This Suits
This role will suit someone who:
• Has some experience in a professional kitchen
• Is genuinely passionate about cooking and food quality
• Wants to push themselves and improve every day
• Takes pride in their work and turns up with the right mindset
• Is reliable, switched on and works well under pressure
• Understands that fine dining requires discipline, focus and graft

If you’re keen to learn from strong chefs, accept feedback and develop properly, this kitchen will give you that opportunity.
What You’ll Be Doing
• Supporting senior chefs during prep and service
• Maintaining high standards of cleanliness, organisation and food safety
• Learning techniques, consistency and attention to detail
• Contributing positively to a professional, high-performance kitchen

What’s On Offer
• A position in a kitchen with a serious food reputation and award aspirations
• Real progression and professional development for the right person
• A team that values work ethic, commitment and improvement
• An opportunity to grow with a venue that has big plans for the future

This is not a role for someone looking to coast — it’s for a Junior Commis Chef who wants to work hard, learn properly and take the next step in their career.

Due to the location of this venue being able to drive or organise reliable transport is essential.
