The Role

We're recruiting for a Café Chef / Experienced Cook to join a busy, well-loved skater café in Quintrell Downs, serving fresh food made daily.

✅ Closed Christmas Eve, Christmas Day & Boxing Day

✅ Closed New Year's Eve & New Year's Day

✅ Closed Easter Sunday

✅ Fun, relaxed café vibe

✅ Fresh food made daily

✅ A team where you'll actually enjoy coming into work
