Kitchen Manager

Black Bear Burger is not your typical burger joint - our ethos is 'simple, done well' - we don't mess around with gimmicks. We use the best beef we can get our hands on and everything in our burgers is there to enhance the flavour of that beef! We've built a huge following of fans (both in person and online) and get daily burger pilgrims travelling from across the country to try our food. We've featured on Netflix's Million Pound Menu and most recently BBC's Masterchef the Professionals. As a company we currently have four sites with two planned for early 2023, and a further two at the end of the year. We're on a really great journey, and at this 'early' stage we're looking to bring pro-active, dynamic and career driven people on board to grow with us on that journey. THE ROLE As Kitchen manager, you'll be working closely with head office in leading your team from the front, drawing on previous chef and management experience.
