Chef de Partie – ENDO Chelsea
At ENDO Chelsea, there are only ten seats. Every guest sits in front of Chef Kazutoshi Endo as he cooks, sharing the food, craftsmanship and spirit of Japan in his own way. It's an intimate room where every detail matters, and every person on the team is part of the experience.
We're looking for a Chef de Partie to join our small, close-knit kitchen team and work alongside Chef Endo in delivering the ENDO omakase experience.

Precise and proud of your work, with high standards and attention to detail
Confident running your section, and generous in guiding and supporting junior chefs
What you'll do
Run your section for the ENDO omakase, preparing and presenting courses to the highest standard
Work at the counter in front of guests, with the composure and care the experience demands
Handle premium seasonal ingredients with respect, from fish butchery and ageing to rice and garnishes
Lead on prep, ordering and stock for your section, keeping everything immaculate and organised
Support and train commis chefs, and work closely with Chef Endo and front-of-house to deliver a seamless experience
What we offer (both roles)
Competitive salary, plus a share of service charge and tips
Delicious, nutritious team meals
50% off food and drinks across all our restaurants
Personalised training and development to help you grow your career
A day off on your birthday, to celebrate you
