Chef/Pizza Chef

Join the Crew at Nortons Digbeth: Chefs Wanted!

Nortons Digbeth isn’t just a venue; it’s a Birmingham institution. With a 500-capacity room that hosts the best live music in the city, we’ve built a fierce reputation for more than just our stage. From our legendary Full Irish Breakfasts and authentic Sunday Roasts to our signature Irish Pizzas, our kitchen is the heartbeat of the house.

We are looking for passionate, high-energy chefs to join our kitchen team. If you thrive when the music is loud, the orders are flying, and the quality is non-negotiable, we want to hear from you.

The Role

We’re looking for a skilled Chef (senior CDP upwards) who can handle the heat of a fast-paced environment. While you’ll be part of a versatile team, we are specifically looking for a Pizza Powerhouse to take ownership of our signature dough section.

What We’re Looking For

• The Pizza Pro: You don’t just "make" pizzas—you craft them. You have experience hand-throwing fresh dough and a keen eye for detail. You’ll own the section, ensuring every pizza that hits the table meets our high specs while remaining open to learning new techniques.
• A Hands-on Team Player: You thrive in high-energy environments. When the venue is at its 500-person capacity, you stay cool, move fast, and support your teammates.
• Quality Obsessed: Whether it’s a garnish on a roast or the stretch of the dough, you take pride in using fresh, seasonal ingredients to deliver excellence every time.
• Organized & Efficient: You know that a clean, well-oiled kitchen is a happy one. You’ll keep your station sharp and the service running smoothly.
• The Essentials: Ideally, you hold a Food Hygiene Level 2 certification and have solid experience in a professional kitchen.

The Perks & Schedule

We value work-life balance (even in hospitality!). This role is mostly evening work, meaning you get to keep your days free for yourself.

• Shift Pattern: Primarily evenings, including weekends and peak periods.
• The Vibe: Work in one of the most iconic, vibrant spots in Digbeth.
• Growth: Opportunity to master our signature recipes and bring your own flair to a legendary menu.
