Senior Sous Chef – Tuesday to Saturday
Casual Fine Dining Restaurant
Italian Inspired
We are now on the lookout for a Senior Sous Chef for Magenta, our charming Italian-inspired, casual fine dining restaurant.
Magenta is a place for libations and celebrations of everyday life until it closes, swept away by the turmoil of the time. A bar and restaurant within an indoor pergola of Victorian industrial architecture, dressed in a palette of coal, steel, and oak, upholstered with magenta wool and anthracite leather. An evocative space where thousands of butterflies flutter overhead.
Our dishes are curated by Executive Head Chef Manuele Bazzoni, who carefully crafted his 15-year culinary career at Le Boudin Blanc as Head Chef and Trinity to name a few. Each dish is perfectly balanced to delight the senses, to take you on a journey to Italy whilst paired with our extensive wine list.
Magenta offers an excellent and innovative dining experience, challenging traditions and uplifting Italian cuisine to a completely different dimension.
The ideal Senior Sous Chef will be a well organised & strong person, able to develop new menus alongside the Executive Chef. The Sous will need to be able to maintain the smooth running of the kitchen. We are looking for someone on a Senior Level experienced within the role in a similar environment for at least 2/3 years - it is essential to be experienced with fresh & seasonal produce and have a stable career path.

Tired of the same old jargon, "we are different"? So are we, sod it. We want our team members to feel special, which is why we work on the ethos that we "hire smart people to bring the journey forward"
Hospitality is about honesty, which comes from within. You can't turn it into a concept, or roll it out as a chain. Our properties are just as individual as our people. That makes us different. Are you different, and highly skilled?
Then, be a genius. If not now...when?
