The role

Medlock Square marks a bold new chapter in the evolution of the Etihad Campus - a vibrant, year‑round destination for culture, leisure and entertainment, set alongside two global icons: the Etihad Stadium, home of Manchester City Football Club, and the landmark Co‑op Live arena.

Named after the River Medlock that runs beneath the site, the development celebrates Manchester's industrial heritage while shaping its next era of city‑defining experiences. Manchester is known worldwide for its sport, music and entertainment - and Medlock Square will build on that legacy, creating a landmark home for exceptional shared moments and elevating the city's position as one of Europe's most dynamic, fast‑growing destinations.

At the heart of this new district will be an extraordinary food and beverage offer: from relaxed coffee houses and all‑day dining to flagship restaurants and premium culinary experiences. Designed to serve both everyday visitors and major event audiences, Medlock Square will deliver high‑quality hospitality all week long and across the events calendar.

Key Responsibilities

As a Senior Chef de Partie, you will work with other chefs to ensure quality of service, and to help drive performance standards in the kitchen. This is a great chance to be part of a growing and dynamic culinary team, working within a range of new and high-quality culinary concepts!

You will be responsible for:

Culinary Execution
Prepare, cook, and present dishes to a consistently high standard, taking full ownership of your section during service. Ensure quality, consistency, and presentation are maintained at all times, while delivering dishes efficiently in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.

Service & Preparation
Complete all mise en place to a high standard and ensure your section is fully set up and ready for service. Maintain strong organisation and cleanliness throughout shifts, supporting a smooth and efficient service flow across the kitchen.

Team Leadership & Development
Support and guide Commis Chefs and Kitchen Assistants, contributing to a positive, well-organised, and high-performing kitchen culture. As a Senior CDP, assist Sous Chefs in overseeing sections and supporting overall team performance.

Operational Standards
Maintain high standards of food safety, hygiene, and health & safety in line with company policies and procedures. Support stock control, rotation, and waste management, while ensuring all equipment is used safely and properly maintained.

Collaboration & Improvement
Work closely with the wider kitchen and front-of-house teams to ensure seamless service. Support menu consistency and the implementation of new dishes, while contributing ideas to improve quality, efficiency, and overall service delivery.
