Remy's has been part of Paddington's collective culture for more than 14 years. As a long-standing Paddington venue with the warmth and familiarity of a neighbourhood corner, we're now moving into a new phase as an all-day bistro.

We’ve been known for our laid‑back character, café breakfasts and smash burgers. We are looking for a Head Chef to help lead Remy's next chapter as a proper all-day bistro with a sharper food point of view, a stronger kitchen culture and the ability to expand into new markets with a reputation of consistently high quality from start to finish.

We are looking for a humble, hungry and highly skilled chef who can help reshape the Paddington venue and build a team capable of supporting future growth — including a potential new venue in the next 12–18 months.

We are looking for someone with deep practical skill, real curiosity and the appetite to lead well. Someone who can make a menu feel considered and accessible without making it over the top or pedestrian.

High standards of team organisation, preparation, cooking,



presentation and consistency.

Practical service leadership: preparation, communication, pace, quality and clean handover between shifts.

Sensible menu development that respects the venue, the guest and the realities of a working kitchen.

Strong food safety, hygiene and compliance practices and standards

Clear oversight of ordering, stock control, waste awareness & kitchen organisation

Strong management experience when it comes to COGs & Wages

We are interested in the evidence of your work: the kitchens you have helped shape, the standards you have built, the teams you have developed and the food you are proud to put in front of guests.

Most of all we are looking for someone with ambition to help build something great.

What you can expect

The opportunity to lead the kitchen through a meaningful venue transition.

Genuine input into the next stage of the menu and kitchen systems where your proven experience is valued.

A workplace that values clear standards, valuable communication and old school, grounded hospitality.
