A New Era of Pizza

Are you a passionate hospitality leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment? Ready to take the next step in your career and help shape a brand-new opening?

We're bringing Forbici to Bluewater Shopping Centre, Kent, and we're looking for a Deputy Team Leader to help drive exceptional guest experiences, support the team, and deliver outstanding hospitality 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.
