What’s the role?

Commis Chef


Where will you be working?

The Ned and Ned’s Club are a global collection of hotels, clubs, spas, and restaurants for like-minded individuals to meet, work and have a good time.


The Ned launched in 2017 in the heart of the City, in the former Midland Bank headquarters. The Ned City of London houses Ned’s Club - a private members’ space, gym and rooftop - alongside a public spa, a full floor of events spaces, ten restaurants and bars and 250 hotel bedrooms.


As part of our kitchen teams and reporting to the kitchen leadership team, you will:

  • Prep the food and ingredients our chefs need to smoothly cook and serve amazing quality food
  • Occasionally work alongside the other chefs on the sections, directly preparing food ready for service to guests
  • Maintain a safe and clean kitchen environment, protecting our guests and your teammates from any possible harm
  • Our service flows straight from breakfast, to lunch, into dinner so you will need to keep your kitchen clean, tidy, well presented, and ready to hand over to the next team of chefs
  • You may also support the next team of chefs by helping to prep for the next service
  • Our kitchens all operate different hours, so we can usually accommodate your preferred shift patterns – but as always a degree of flexibility is required in hospitality


What you can bring to the role:

  • Previous kitchen experience is an advantage, but not essential. This is an entry level role and we will happily look after and train people with a can-do attitude and a willingness to learn
  • Our customers and guests expect the best, so high standards are essential
  • Our kitchens can be high pressure so a calm demeanour and a genuine passion for providing guests with exceptional food is essential
  • Ideally this role is a stepping stone into a Chef De Partie role, so a desire to learn and progress is preferred, but not essential


What can The Ned give you?

  • Salary of 13.60 per hour including service charge
  • Complimentary meals in our friendly team restaurant, Neddy’s including monthly payday breakfast
  • Exciting learning and development programmes to help progress your career
  • Exclusive rates at The Ned for staying and eating for you, your family and friends
  • Wellbeing and health benefits, including Reward Gateway and Wagestream, with access to gym, shopping, and cinema discounts
  • Your birthday off after a year of service and more holiday after five years
  • Paid volunteer day
  • Refer a friend scheme of up to £1,000
  • Regular social events, including an annual pool party
  • Employee assistance programme – 24/7 advice and support
  • Reward and recognition initiatives


At The Ned, we don't just celebrate our diversity, we challenge ourselves to do even better. The Ned is committed to being the best place to work, and ensuring that we have a leading diversity, equity and inclusion programme is central to making that vision a reality.
