Chef Roles – New Megan’s Opening in Oxford (Register Your Interest) 💙

💙 What We’re Looking For

We’re building the kitchen team for our brand-new Megan’s in Oxford, and we’re looking for brilliant chefs to be part of it from day one.

As part of the kitchen team, you’ll be right in the middle of the action. You’ll work closely with your team to deliver consistently great food, keep standards high, and make sure every plate that leaves the kitchen is spot on.

This is a fast-paced kitchen with fresh food, high standards, and no shortcuts. You’ll need to be organised, switched on, and take real pride in what you put out.

We’re looking for people who:

Know their way around a busy kitchen (or are hungry to learn fast)
Take ownership - of their section, their prep, and their standards
Work properly as part of a team (no egos, no lone wolves)
Stay calm under pressure and keep things moving
Care about consistency, quality, and doing things the right way

You’ll follow our recipes, manage your section, support your team, and help create a kitchen that runs like clockwork - even when it’s full-on (and it will be full-on).

Fresh food, high standards, strong team, that’s the deal.

💙 What’s in it for you?
