Mr Kitchen Porter

Work with the back-of-house team that keeps London kitchens running.

We hire the people that hospitality operators rely on at 2am on a Saturday — kitchen porters, BOH cleaners, TR19 operatives and the team that schedules them. Everyone is PAYE-employed by us directly, paid weekly, and trained to a defined standard.

Why work with us

PAYE, not umbrella. No IR35 risk, no missing holiday pay, no surprise deductions.
Weekly pay. Every Friday, into your bank account, no waiting.
Training paid for. Level 2 Food Safety at induction; further qualifications funded for the right people.
Real rota. Pick your shift pattern and stick to it — we are not a zero-hours app.
Career path. KP → senior KP → site supervisor; or cleaner → TR19 lead engineer.
Kit provided. Branded chef whites or coveralls, safety footwear, PPE — all supplied at induction.
