you will ensure excellent communication with your head chef to develop a team that runs like clockwork and loves to learn. You’ll be a character and have character. Whether you’re emphasising the importance of smashing targets or looking out for ways to improve and pass on your technical skills. It’s all about becoming a better leader by caring for your people and restaurants success.
you will already have managerial experience in a large, fast-paced kitchen, even so, you’ll quickly find that wagamama is a pretty unique place! things at wagamama change every day, so you will embrace change and show your ambition by taking on extra responsibility to run the kitchen when the head chef isn’t there, after all. That’s where you aim to be one day!
