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.
