I’m a reliable chef progressing to sous chef in fast-paced commercial kitchens.
What I'm looking for
I’m a reliable and hardworking chef with experience in fast-paced commercial kitchens. I progressed from Kitchen Porter to Sous Chef, which strengthened my skills in food preparation, teamwork, food hygiene, and working under pressure.
In busy service, I prepared and cooked dishes while supporting daily kitchen operations. I consistently maintained high food hygiene standards and helped with kitchen cleaning to keep the workplace running smoothly.
My approach is grounded in quality and safety: I maintain strict food hygiene and health & safety standards, stay attentive to detail, and manage time effectively to meet service needs. I’m comfortable working efficiently within a busy kitchen team and keeping standards high.
Beyond the kitchen, I’ve also supported operations in other roles, including assisting with recruitment administration and record keeping, and operating specialist cutting machinery while interpreting technical drawings. I’m looking to continue developing my career within a professional kitchen.
