The Head Pizzaiolo is one of the most important roles in our Pizzerias. You'll have full ownership of the kitchen operation - quality, consistency, people, compliance, and culture.

Let us Introduce ourselves

Founded in Manchester in 2015, Rudy's Neapolitan Pizzeria has grown to 39 sites across the UK on the strength of one core belief: that authentic Neapolitan pizza, made with the finest Italian ingredients and served by people who genuinely care, is worth doing properly. Fresh dough daily, 60-second pizzas, a culture that puts people first - that's the Rudy's way.

  • Taking full ownership of kitchen performance, quality, and consistency
  • Leading, developing, and inspiring the kitchen team across all levels
  • Maintaining Rudy's Neapolitan pizza standards to the highest specification

  • Driving efficiency through effective labour management and scheduling

  • Working closely with the General Manager to align kitchen and floor performance

  • Deep technical knowledge of authentic Neapolitan pizza-making
  • Proven ability to lead, motivate, and develop a large kitchen team
