Our team are enthusiastic about sharing their love of all things Irish and building on our reputation for warm hospitality and traditional, wholesome food. If you share our passion and are up for the craic, you’ll be made most welcome too.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Sous Chef you’ll work closely with the Head Chef to design and deliver menus that meet both customer satisfaction and our bottom line.

  3. A Competitive and Progressive salary.
  4. A monthly variable share of the venue service charge, paid through a Tronc scheme in line with the Tipping Act 2023. 100% of our Service Charge goes to our employees and is distributed in its entirety on a monthly basis. The lower figure is the hourly salary and the higher figure is the average hourly income across a year including tronc distribution for the role advertised.
  5. Wage Stream – giving you direct access to your wages when you need them.
  6. Private Medical Cover on completion of one year’s service.
  7. Access to Professional Mental Health Resources and an Employee Assistance Programme on completion of one year's service.
  8. 28 days paid Holiday per annum, inclusive of Bank Holidays.
