Kitchen Team Member

Pay: £14-£16/hr

Hours: Wed-Sun 4:30pm - 10pm

It’s a Wednesday night in some mid-sized Aussie town… You’ve finished work for the day and you’re driving home. Your car doesn’t have autopilot but somehow you’ve just pulled into the Woolies carpark… You gravitate toward the glow of the heat lamp like a moth to flame… You rummage through the various options looking for it, the one… The best one… The roast chook where the skin is cooked juuussttt right… There it is… Bloody oath! You grab your bachelors handbag and you’re on route to the checkout! You jump in the car and can’t help but reach across the seat on the drive home just to pick a little bit off the top… Life is good.

Sound familiar? If so - you might be a perfect fit for us at Chooks! 

Chooks is an independent kitchen bringing our love of Aussie style rotisserie chicken and sides to London. At the moment we work in a cloud kitchen and we operate on the main delivery platforms providing both pickup and delivery.

About you

  • Proactive & Reliable: Comfortable working independently, managing tasks efficiently, and helping maintain a smooth kitchen flow. We’d also love to hear your ideas and experience! We want to know how you’d improve things! For us, this is what really matters, we want someone that believes in what we’re trying to create.

  • Composure: This doesn’t mean we run a toxic kitchen, it’s just easier if you don’t lose your marbles during a flood of orders.

  • Previous Kitchen Experience is a plus but not essential; we will require a Cert 2 in Food safety and Hygiene, but if you don’t have one already, we can help you get one. Any experience working with the delivery platforms is also a plus.

  • Attention to Detail: Able to follow recipes and procedures to ensure consistent quality.

  • Friendly & Professional Attitude: Able to interact respectfully with team members, delivery drivers, and any customers picking up orders. We have no desire to work with big egos, we’re trying to create a professional work environment and want to keep it kind, constructive and fun.

Responsibilities

  • Food Preparation: Assist with preparing rotisserie chickens and other menu items: salads, slaw, chips, corn, mash etc.

  • Quality Control: Maintain a high standard of personal and kitchen hygiene, food quality and presentation. Follow food safety guidelines closely.

  • Order Fulfillment: Efficiently prepare and package orders for delivery and pickups.

  • Kitchen Maintenance: Keep the kitchen clean and organised, handle equipment safely, and do the end-of-day cleanup.

  • Friendly Delivery Interactions: Greet and coordinate with delivery drivers for smooth pickups.

  • Inventory Support: Assist with stock rotation, ingredient checks, and inform the team of any supply needs.

Benefits

  • Focused Atmosphere: Little to no customer interaction, so you can just focus on creating great food. If things are a little slow and there’s nothing else to be done, pump the tunes and hang out without worrying about looking busy!

  • Convenient Location: Located in North London, right next to Caledonian Road & Barnsbury Overground station and a 10 min walk from the Caledonian Road tube (Northern Line)

  • Growth Opportunities: Join a growing business with opportunities to develop your role as we grow.

  • Directly Opposite an Awesome Brewery: If you’re the type that enjoys a post-work pint; Hammerton Brewery has a very vibey taproom just opposite us. A great way to wrap up the evening (or get it started!).
