Coal Rooms – Peckham Rye

The Coal Rooms is set in the Grade II-listed former ticket office of Peckham Rye station, which we restored to its former glory. The Coal Rooms has become one of Peckham’s leading culinary destinations with an open kitchen that is fitted with a bespoke, coal-fired grill. This means our chefs can produce exceptional dishes with the highest quality ingredients.

We have created South London’s finest seasonal menu and from Tuesday – Sunday we serve dishes such as charred pork rib and smoked guinea fowl to BBQ’d wild mushrooms and char grilled Hispi. We use produce that is locally sourced and this, coupled with being a social enterprise, has helped us become a restaurant that is at the heart of the community.

The Head Chef will be responsible for ensuring the delivery of consistent, high quality and innovative dishes throughout the whole operation; you will play a key role in menu development, working closely with the founders and directors. You will manage the overall kitchen operation as well as the day to day management of the kitchen team. The head chef will also have an active role in the development of our sister concept El Gordito.

The person we are looking for is currently a Head chef (min 18 months in the Head chef role).

As a Coal Rooms Head Chef you will have:

A creative approach to your work with excellent attention to detail.
A strong awareness of trends and seasonality of produce.
Experience of leading kitchen teams including staffing costs, rotas and GPs.
Strength in finances, purchasing and menu costing.
Great personality and drive with a ‘hands on’ approach and leading the kitchen team from the front.
Ability to deliver fresh food to high standards.
Passion and care for your team to drive their progression.

What you can expect from us at Coal Rooms:

An inclusive working culture.
Performance based bonus scheme.
Career development and progression.
28 days holidays.
Discounted meals on shift.
Discounts at our sister venues El Gordito and Old Spike.
A cash reward scheme for referring a friend to work with us.

If you want to be part of something special then get in touch.
