You'll prepare ingredients, receive and put away deliveries, keep everything organised and jump onto KP when the kitchen needs you.\nThis is a hands-on role, and everyone gets stuck in.\nWhat you'll be doing\nYour job is to help keep the kitchen organised, prepared and moving.\nYou'll:\nPrepare ingredients and food ready for service.\n\nFollow our recipes, portioning and preparation standards.\n\nReceive deliveries, checking they're correct and up to standard.\n\nPut deliveries away safely, quickly and in the right place.\n\nRotate stock and help keep our storage areas organised.\n\nFollow our food safety, allergen and kitchen standards.\n\nKeep prep areas clean, tidy and ready to use.\n\nSupport the chefs during busy services when needed.\n\nWork on KP, keeping dishes, equipment and kitchen areas clean and moving.\n\nHelp with cleaning and all the everyday jobs that keep a brilliant kitchen running.\n\nWork with the wider kitchen team to make sure we're ready for the next service.\n\nSome days you'll spend more time prepping. Other days the delivery might arrive and need sorting, or KP might be where the team needs you most.\nBeing a Prep Chef at Boston means being happy to turn your hand to all three.\nWho we're looking for\nKitchen experience is useful, but attitude matters just as much.\nWe're looking for someone who's organised, reliable and happy with a role that keeps them moving.\nYou'll need to be comfortable working across prep, deliveries and KP - they're all important parts of the job.\nYou'll be someone who:\nFuels Growth\nYou're willing to learn and develop your kitchen skills. You take feedback on board and want to get better at what you do.\nLeads Responsibly\nYou care about doing things properly. You follow food safety standards, check deliveries carefully, rotate stock and take pride in keeping your workspace clean and organised.\nMakes Connections\nYou're a team player. If the chefs need prep, you prep. If a delivery arrives, you help get it sorted. If KP needs support, you roll your sleeves up and get stuck in.\nNo egos. Just one kitchen team.\nWhat's in it for you?\nWe'll give you the training and support you need to become brilliant at the role.\nFor some people, Prep Chef is exactly the job they're looking for - a hands-on kitchen role as part of a great team.\nFor others, it can be the start of something bigger.\nIf you discover you love cooking and want to develop further, there are opportunities to build your kitchen skills and progress towards becoming a Chef and beyond.\nYou'll also get a great package of Boston benefits and one of the biggest advantages of working in our kitchens:\nDaytime hospitality without the late-night finishes.\nGood Eggs Only\nWe've been doing things a little differently since 1995.\nWe care about great food, great coffee, our communities and doing business in a way we're proud of.\nAnd we know brilliant food doesn't happen without all the work behind the scenes.\nThe prep matters. The deliveries matter. The washing up matters.\nEvery job in the kitchen matters.\nSo if you're organised, hardworking and the kind of person who sees what needs doing and gets stuck in, we'd love to meet you.\nCome and be part of the team that keeps Boston cooking.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3578,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-14T07:53:52Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":75,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.837,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":11,"expected_fill_days":26,"reasons":["conf:6","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-11-14T14:34:03Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/boston-tea-party-preparation-chef","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/boston-tea-party-preparation-chef.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-14T14:34:03Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":15477,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-15T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2872682},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2872682"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fboston-tea-party-preparation-chef"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fboston-tea-party-preparation-chef"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fboston-tea-party-preparation-chef"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/boston-tea-party-preparation-chef\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fboston-tea-party-preparation-chef"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4306370}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"bostonteaparty.co.uk","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4306370},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
