About Casa

Our journey began in 2018 with the launch of Casa do Frango in London Bridge - a Portuguese grill concept inspired by Marco's Portuguese heritage and fond memories of his upbringing in Southern Portugal. Offering a menu of fresh, wood charcoal-grilled dishes in a warm atmosphere, it quickly became a local favourite. Building on this success, we were fortunate to be able to expand Casa to the neighbourhoods of Mayfair (2022) and Victoria (2023).

We're looking for a Kitchen Porter to join our team at Casa London Bridge, our flagship restaurant, where you will play a key role in for delivering unforgettable guest experiences and help us continue to grow.The site welcomes around 3000 guest each week, we're a thriving 200+ cover space spread across two floors, including a charming private dining room. Since opening in 2018, we've earned rave reviews from critics like Jay Rayner and Marina O'Loughlin, and we're just getting started.

We are passionate about creating memorable experiences for our guests and nurturing a positive, energetic work environment for our team. After winning Disruptor Brand at the 2023 Peach 20/20 Hero & Icon Awards and Emerging Concept at the MCA Hospitality Awards 2023, there's never been a better time to join us. With our expansion continuing in 2025, career progression opportunities are endless.
