Are you a hands-on hospitality pro who’s ready to become a specialist in one of the most exciting parts of the kitchen? At Scoffs Group, we’re proud to be one of the UK’s leading franchise partners for itsu – the fast-growing, Asian-inspired food brand known for its fresh, healthy, and beautiful dishes.

We’re looking for a motivated and detail-focused Fish Pro – a key back-of-house role for anyone who wants to step up, take ownership of the fish section, and help maintain our high standards in food quality, safety, and training.


The Role: Team Member Pro – Fish Pro (itsu)

As a Fish Pro, you’ll take the lead in our fish section – owning quality, process, and consistency. You’ll support the management team with training and feedback, help the shop hit performance targets, and uphold the highest food safety and preparation standards.

🌟 Hospitality & Customer Focus

  • Help drive a strong “customer first” mindset in the shop
  • Maintain excellent mystery shopper scores through team focus
  • Know and follow the 6 Hospitality Steps at all times
  • Reduce queues through energy and pace, especially during peak periods
  • Support with customer queries and issues when needed

🍣 Fish Quality & Kitchen Standards

  • Own the fish section quality – from preparation to presentation
  • Cut and prepare salmon to exact “How To” specifications
  • Monitor fish freshness and follow FIFO (First In, First Out)
  • Follow the bone removal process and maintain fish knife use, storage, and sharpening standards
  • Keep fish section equipment clean and functional to itsu’s “How To” guides
  • Use the correct recipe and portioning tools (CTR and scales) every time
  • Record and dispose of out-of-date products correctly
  • Keep the fish section immaculately clean using CATC & CAYG methods
  • Always follow 5FSF and 5FQF food safety and quality standards
  • Complete Due Diligence Diary (DDD) sections accurately when required
  • Be EHO-ready: confidently answer fish-related food safety questions during inspections

💸 Profitability & Performance

  • Follow production sheets and meet productivity goals in your section
  • Accurately record all types of fish section waste, helping the team reduce it
  • Raise and track fish-related maintenance and delivery issues promptly
  • Monitor and follow up on stock levels in the fish section
  • Understand and use shop reports to help reach fish section KPIs
  • Ensure your section is always prepped and “set for success” according to itsu’s standards


What We’re Looking For

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

  • Have excellent attention to detail and food presentation skills
  • Are confident working in fast-paced back-of-house operations
  • Care deeply about food safety, hygiene, and quality
  • Take initiative, motivate others, and enjoy helping people learn
  • Are ready to be a go-to person in your shop
  • Live the itsu values: Aim Higher, Work Together, Take Pride, Build Trust
