What’s the role?

Pastry Junior Sous 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.


At The Ned, we have restaurants in almost every cuisine, from pan-Asian to American diner, and Italian to fine dining.


As a junior member of the kitchen leadership team, reporting into the kitchen managers you will:

  • Be working alongside the sous and head chef to lead the daily operation, overseeing the production of our food, compiling the daily mise-en-place, and ensuring that all food is cooked and presented to our exceptional Ned standards
  • Support some people leadership tasks - including team recruitment, development and performance chats, onboarding new starters - this is a great role for an aspiring kitchen manager who wants to build their people management skillset
  • Be a guardian of food quality and presentation, monitoring all food leaving your kitchen and providing coaching and feedback to the team where needed
  • Create and monitor a safe and clean kitchen environment, protecting our guests and team from any possible harm
  • Protect our excellent food safety ratings and audit standards by always keeping a close eye on procedures and practices, keeping impeccable records, and implementing action plans where necessary
  • A mainstay of our kitchen team, you’ll be preparing all meat, fish, poultry, and vegetables


What you can bring to the role:

  • Previous kitchen experience with a proven track record of delivering outstanding food is essential
  • Previous experience of supervising or managing a team is beneficial, but experienced chefs looking to take their next step may be considered
  • Our customers and guests expect the best, so high standards are essential
  • An organised and detailed manner is necessary, as impeccable record keeping is needed to maintain records for our safety and audit standards
  • Creative flare is always welcome - our menus change seasonally, and you may be offered the opportunity to support with food design and creation
  • 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 step on the path to becoming a kitchen manager, so a desire to learn and progress is preferred, but not essential


What can The Ned give you?

  • Salary of £18.65/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 Stream, 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
  • 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.


Please let us know of any specific needs you may have during your interview.


All candidates must be eligible to live and work in the UK to be considered for this role.

Why Cyber Security Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Cyber security used to be viewed primarily as a technical discipline: firewalls, encryption, intrusion detection, penetration testing. In the UK today, it’s far broader.

This shift means cyber security careers are becoming more multidisciplinary. From protecting NHS patient records to defending financial services, securing supply chains & safeguarding national infrastructure, cyber security now touches every sector. Employers increasingly want professionals who understand law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design alongside traditional technical skills. In this article, we’ll explore why UK cyber security careers are expanding in this way, how these five disciplines shape the profession, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to thrive in this new landscape.
