Sous Chef
45-hour working week for a growing wine and food concept in London
Job description
At Humble Grape, food and wine are designed to be shared. Our kitchens build menus around small plates, sharing plates, and dishes crafted to complement our wine list — full of bold, food-friendly flavours that invite the table to order more, taste more, and linger longer.
