Commis Chef at University of Bath

About the role

Ready to level up your chef career? Join our kitchen team and work across a range of exciting outlets, from global street food to fine dining (definitely not school dinners).

What you'll do

• Support the kitchen team to deliver high-quality, delicious food
• Work in a fast-paced, professional environment
• Maintain excellent standards of cleanliness, food safety, and hygiene
• Learn, develop, and grow alongside experienced chefs

This is a full-time role (36.5 hours per week on a 5/7 contract) with early, mid, and late shifts (7:30am–8:30pm), including weekend work, based at a world-class university.

About you

You’re passionate, motivated, and ready to grow as a chef in a busy, rewarding kitchen.

• A real passion for cooking great food, with previous junior chef experience ideal but not essential
• An NVQ in Food Preparation is a bonus, with full training provided for the right candidate
• Someone who thrives under pressure and enjoys a varied, fast-paced environment
• A positive attitude with strong teamwork skills — personality matters just as much as ability
• Eagerness to learn, develop, and be part of a supportive, hardworking team
