Job Summary

Sous Chef — The Seven Stars, Leigh

£38,000 to £45,000 total package including live in, live out salary TBD

The Seven Stars is a new independent pub in the surrey countryside, recently reopened under new ownership with a new Head Chef and a clear vision for the food offering.

We’re building a kitchen focused on fresh, seasonal cooking without the pretension — modern british food made with care, good technique and great ingredients. Menus change regularly, produce is sourced thoughtfully, and the aim is to cook simple food exceptionally well.

We’re now looking for a talented Sous Chef to join the team and help shape the next stage of the kitchen.

This role would suit either an experienced Sous Chef or an ambitious Junior Sous ready to step up into their first senior role. What matters most is strong fundamentals, consistency, professionalism, and genuine passion for cooking.

What we’re looking for:

• A technically strong chef with good all-round kitchen skills


• Someone organised, calm and reliable in service


• Passion for fresh, seasonal food and proper cooking


• A team player who wants to be part of building something


• Ambition to grow alongside a young and developing business

What we offer:

• Up to £45,000 total package


• Beautiful 3-bedroom live-in flat above the pub available


• Maximum 48-hour working week with 2 days off per week (kitchen is closed on Mondays and Tuesday)


• Opportunity to work closely with the Head Chef and owner


• A growing, independent business where your input matters


• Supportive environment with room to progress

This is an exciting opportunity to join a kitchen early in its journey and play a genuine part in where it goes next.
