We're bringing Forbici to Tooley Street, London, and we're looking for a Deputy Kitchen Lead to help drive standards, support the team, and deliver exceptional food every day.

At Forbici, biga fermentation sits at the heart of what we do. Time, discipline and attention to detail shape every dough we make and every pizza we serve. Inspired by Naples, driven by craft, and shaped by the cities we call home, this is pizza done properly.

Our people make Forbici, and we're proud to be recognised as one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work in 2024, 2025 & 2026, reflecting the culture we're building and the talented teams behind it.
