Senior Chef

We know you’ve read a lot of job ads already, so we’ll get to the point!

Pizza Pilgrims is a Multi award-winning group of pizzerias started by brothers Thom & James 10 years ago by driving a Piaggio ape Tuk Tuk all the way from Sicily to London on a “Pizza Pilgrimage” to learn the secrets of perfect Italian pizza. Pizza Pilgrims started on a market stall in Soho with an oven in the back of the van & have grown steadily into one of the UK’s most respected Neapolitan pizza companies.

We now have pizzerias across London & are growing across the UK always with that focus on making the best Neapolitan pizza every day . We only use the best ingredients from Naples including Caputo flour, fresh fior di latte, salsiccia e friarielle & more!

We know to make the best pizza we need the best pizza chefs so we work obsessively about creating a great place to work.
