Join a team that values people as much as the food.
Scarborough Harbour Brewing Co is a relaxed waterfront venue serving great beer and honest, consistent food. We're not chasing hats or stars — we just want to serve quality food our customers love, in a workplace that feels good to be in.
We're expanding our small kitchen team and are looking for:
Chef/Cook (Full-Time)
We're looking for an experienced Chef/Cook (minimum 5 years in a similar role) keen for collaboration with our current amazing kitchen staff — no ego. Our kitchen works best when everyone pulls together, respects each other, and enjoys what they do. This role suits someone who's been temping and wants something more consistent — or a solid all-rounder who enjoys working in a supportive team.
What we're looking for:
● Easy-going personality and a "one team" attitude
● Strong communication skills
● Commitment to maintaining a positive, supportive culture. Outstanding culture attracts great recruits.
● Pub/Bistro cuisine experience preferred
What we don't want: Old-school, bossy, or bullying chefs. We have zero tolerance for that. We're just as focused on creating a culture staff want to be a part of.
Perks:
● Venue closed Mondays and Tuesdays — guaranteed days off
● No early starts
● Great team culture
- Stunning waterfront location
You'll need: ● Relevant kitchen experience
● Minimum 5 years of kitchen experience required
● Common sense, initiative,
and reliability
● A team-first attitude — willing to jump in wherever needed (yes, even dishes sometimes!)
● A friendly approach that fits with both the kitchen and front-of-house crew
What you'll be doing
- Preparing and cooking high-quality dishes to our exacting standards
- Ensuring consistency and presentation of all menu items
- Maintaining a clean and organised kitchen environment
- Establishing a good relationship with staff from other areas of the business & work as a team
- Creating & upholding a positive team environment
- Providing a positive team culture
- Adhering to all food safety and health regulations
- Current food safety certification required
