Job Description

The Role

As Senior Sous Chef, you'll be the Head Chef's trusted second-in-command, taking ownership of the day-to-day running of the kitchen and leading from the front during service.

You'll play an integral role in maintaining the exceptional standards The Foundry Bell is known for, while supporting menu delivery, mentoring the brigade, and ensuring every section operates efficiently. You'll confidently oversee service, manage kitchen operations in the Head Chef's absence, and help create a culture built around quality, consistency, and teamwork.

This is an opportunity for a chef who enjoys leading people just as much as creating exceptional food.


Qualifications

What we're looking for

We're searching for an experienced leader who:

  • Has a strong background in fresh food, premium pub, or restaurant kitchens
  • Is passionate about seasonal ingredients and consistently high culinary standards
  • Has proven experience leading and developing kitchen teams
  • Is confident managing busy services and taking responsibility for the kitchen in the Head Chef's absence
  • Has excellent knowledge of stock control, GP, food safety, and kitchen compliance
  • Leads with energy, professionalism, and a genuine passion for developing others
  • Wants to play a key role in the continued success of a thriving food-led business


Additional Information

Why join The Foundry Bell?

The Foundry Bell combines the warmth of a neighbourhood pub with the ambition of a premium dining destination. It's a kitchen where quality ingredients, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality are valued every day.

As Senior Sous Chef, you'll have the opportunity to make a real impact—working alongside an experienced Head Chef, helping to shape the kitchen culture, mentoring the next generation of chefs, and continuing your own progression towards a future Head Chef role.

What we offer

Alongside a competitive salary, you'll enjoy:

  • Excellent opportunities for career progression into Head Chef
  • Ongoing leadership development and training
  • The opportunity to work with high-quality, seasonal ingredients
  • A supportive, ambitious kitchen team
  • Employee discounts
  • Pension contribution
  • A premium working environment where quality, teamwork, and development are at the heart of everything we do

If you're an accomplished Sous Chef ready to step into a true leadership role and help drive one of Wokingham's leading food destinations forward, we'd love to hear from you.
