Full-Time | From £28,000 per year

Join Our Kitchen

Pellizco is an independent, award-recognised Mexican restaurant in the heart of Sheffield. With 34 covers inside and 42 outside, we are a focused, ambitious team delivering contemporary Mexican cooking built around bold flavour, quality produce and thoughtful presentation.

Featured in the Good Food Guide and Harden’s since 2024, we are continuing to invest in our kitchen, our team and our standards — pushing for further accolades while staying grounded as an independent business.

We are now looking for a passionate, driven Chef de Partie to join our growing kitchen team.

The Role

This is a hands-on, full-time position within a busy, ambitious kitchen. You will take ownership of a section, maintain high standards, and work closely with the Head Chef to deliver consistent, flavour-driven dishes.

The role will include:

  • Running and maintaining your section during service

  • Preparing and cooking dishes to a consistently high standard

  • Supporting menu development and creative input

  • Maintaining excellent hygiene and organisational standards

  • Assisting with stock control and prep planning

  • Supporting off-site events and wedding catering when required

We are ideally looking for someone available from March onwards, though start dates can be discussed for the right candidate.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a chef who is:

  • Experienced at CDP level (or a strong Commis ready to step up)

  • Passionate about flavour, technique and quality produce

  • Calm and consistent under pressure

  • Organised and detail-focused

  • Positive, adaptable and team-oriented

  • Interested in developing within an ambitious independent restaurant

Experience with Mexican cuisine is a bonus, but not essential — enthusiasm to learn is far more important.

What We Offer

  • Salary from £28,000 per year (dependent on experience)

  • 4-day working week

  • Sunday & Monday off every week

  • Restaurant closed over Christmas

  • Staff meals on shift

  • Staff discount on food and drinks

  • Creative input into evolving menus

  • Opportunity to grow within an ambitious, recognised restaurant

This is a great opportunity for a motivated chef looking to develop their skills in a progressive kitchen while maintaining a strong work-life balance.
