At The Fresh Factory, we've always believed that excellent food begins with excellent ingredients.

We're looking for a Head Chef to lead our Lucknow kitchen — someone who understands that cooking is as much about curiosity, creativity and respect for ingredients as it is about technique.

We're not a conventional restaurant. Our approach is ingredient-first, seasonal, and rooted in making thoughtful food that tastes exceptional.

What You'll Do:
Assist in leading day-to-day kitchen operations and ensure smooth service execution
Maintain consistency, quality, portioning, and presentation standards across all menu items
Support menu development, product innovation, and seasonal launches
Train, mentor, and develop kitchen team members
Oversee food costing, inventory management, purchasing, wastage and resource optimisation.




Maintain and analyse operational reports, track key performance metrics and implement improvements to kitchen efficiency and profitability.

What we're looking for:
Robust culinary fundamentals and a creative, experimental mindset.
A deep understanding of ingredients, seasonality, sourcing and modern cooking techniques.
Experience leading kitchen teams, maintaining consistency and building a culture of learning.
Ability to drive menu innovation, recipe standardisation, food costs and kitchen operations.
Someone who enjoys challenging conventions and bringing fresh perspectives to the table.
