About this role
We're hiring chefs across all grades at Brown's Brasserie in Cork — commis through to chef de partie level. If late nights are putting you off kitchen work, this one's worth reading. Brown's operates daytime and early evening service, which means you're not finishing at midnight. It's a proper brasserie kitchen with structure and standards, but one that actually respects your time outside of work. What the kitchen looks like Brown's is a well-established brasserie serving classic, quality food done consistently well. The kitchen is organised, the brigade is experienced, and the expectation is simple — good prep, clean sections, and food that goes out right every time. No gimmicks, no all-nighters. No late nights. Service finishes at a reasonable hour. If you've been grinding through late kitchen shifts and want out without leaving the industry, this is a genuine alternative. What we offer • Starting from €14.50 per hour, dependent on grade and experience • No late-night finishes — daytime and early evening service • 29 days paid holiday including bank holidays • Enhanced rates on Sundays and bank holidays • Staff meal on every shift • 50% dining discount for you and your family or friends • Tips shared fairly across the team • Real progression for chefs who want to grow What we're looking for Experience in a professional kitchen at any level. You need solid HACCP knowledge, the ability to hold your section, and a reliable work ethic. We hire across grades, so whether you're just getting started or you're a few years in and looking for a better work-life balance, we'd like to hear from you. Full permission to work in the EU is required. Good kitchens with reasonable hours exist. Brown's is one of them. Send your CV to [email] or apply through the link below.
