Kitchen Assistant

Fancy yourself as the king or queen of the KPs? The GOAT BOH? Then we want to hear from you!

Knead Neapolitan Pizza is looking for an efficient and positive Kitchen Assistant to join our team in Windsor. Immediate start available.

We opened our doors in Windsor at Easter this year, and we’re looking for someone who wants to be part of our growing team.

Knead Neapolitan Pizza is an independent, family-run business that puts staff wellbeing at the forefront of everything we do. This is your chance to join our team at our pizzeria in Windsor and be part of a fun, friendly and fast-paced kitchen.

You will be expected to support our team with ingredient prep, including making dough on a daily basis, while keeping the kitchen squeaky clean. Experience in a commercial kitchen is essential, and there is plenty of opportunity to develop and grow into new roles, such as becoming a pizza chef.

An appetite to learn, a reliable nature and the ability to work under pressure are essential. Being a good team player and a generally nice person with a positive attitude are just as important, as is a passion for pizza!

Key responsibilities include:

• Keep all kitchen work surfaces, counters, sinks, stoves and walls clean and sanitised
• Sweep and mop floors at the beginning and end of shifts
• Clean up spills quickly to avoid disrupting operations
• Wash cookware, utensils and cutlery efficiently to keep them in rotation
• Arrange equipment and ingredient deliveries
• Keep food and supply storage areas organised
• Help with routine food prep tasks, such as chopping vegetables, when needed
• Support with packaging, including labelling, making boxes and packing food

Skills and experience:

Experience of working in a kitchen is essential, and a food hygiene certificate would be ideal, but full training will be given if necessary.

• A fast learner with an interest in working in a professional kitchen
• Willingness to follow food hygiene, health and safety rules
• Good organisational skills and time management
• Ability to work unsupervised in a busy environment
• Ability to work under pressure, especially during busy service periods
• Good communication skills and a strong work ethic
• Team player with a positive attitude
• Able to speak English

What we will do for you:

• Healthy work/life balance
• Part of our TRONC system, adding approximately £1-2/h to your hourly wage
• Invest in your training and growth
• Join us on company and family socials
• Fun and focused working environment
• Free pizza on shift
• Discount for friends and family
