At Buzzworks, we're more than just a hospitality group – we're a community. With 22 vibrant venues (and growing) across Scotland, we deliver exceptional food and memorable hospitality experiences with personality, flair and attention to detail. From Mediterranean dining and premium grill concepts to stylish neighbourhood restaurants and bars, our kitchens are fast-paced, high-energy environments built around great ingredients, strong systems and talented teams. We're now looking for experienced Relief Chefs to support our venues across the estate, providing hands-on kitchen support wherever it's needed. As a Relief Chef, you will work across multiple Buzzworks venues, supporting kitchen teams where additional resource is required. This may include holiday cover, supporting new openings, assisting during busy trading periods, or helping kitchens maintain consistency and standards. Reporting directly to the Operations Chef, you'll quickly adapt to different teams and environments while delivering great food and supporting smooth day-to-day kitchen operations. This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced Sous Chef who enjoys variety, thrives in different environments and takes pride in maintaining high standards wherever they work.
