Chef Jobs at The Dusty Knuckle

The Dusty Knuckle Bakery is a purpose driven business which operates busy cafes and restaurants, serving very high quality food and drinks whilst also distributing bread and pastry to other businesses. Whilst we consider our products at TDK to be some of the best in London, we are about much more than just baking.

TDK runs a youth training programme. We provide work-based mentorship/support, training, and employment opportunities to at risk youth, including those with offending histories. We believe in equipping trainees with the confidence, skills, personal accountability, and support network to develop productive, functional lives.

We have worked tirelessly since 2014 to grow the business from a fledgling start-up in a 40 ft shipping container into a profit-for-purpose food venture with strong brand recognition and a loyal following. We now employ 100+ staff and are developing training routes specifically designed and reserved for at-risk young people. Our social impact program is embedded within the bakery, kitchen, and café operations.

TDK is at an exciting time in its growth.

We expanded our production HQ and opened a second London site in 2021; we now aim to expand to other sites over the coming years alongside the expansion and refinement of our training program for young people.
