Niente paura, non serviamo pizze con ananas. (No pineapple pizza here)

Join the Rudy’s Famiglia

We started in Manchester in 2015 with one simple belief: Experience is great, but passion is everything.

Fast forward to today, and that same passion fuels every pizza we serve — from our fresh dough made daily to the finest Italian ingredients, baked to perfection in just 60 seconds.

Now, Chester is next… and you could be part of it from day one.

  • Serious development opportunities – including our Rudy’s Pizzaiolo Academy
  • Loyalty bonus scheme
  • 50% off food & drink across all Rudy’s sites (bring your people!)
  • Free guestlist to Albert Hall, Manchester
  • Free food & drink after shift – all the Kimbo ☕
  • Team celebrations: Festa di Natale & Summer BBQ
  • Birthday card & gift – because we celebrate our people

About the Role

This role has been mixed, hydrated and stretched to perfection.

As a Pizzaiolo at Rudy’s, you’re at the heart of everything — crafting authentic Neapolitan pizzas, working the oven, and bringing energy to the kitchen every single service.

Who we’re looking for

  • Passionate about pizza (non-negotiable)
  • Experience with Neapolitan techniques is ideal
  • Comfortable working with pizza ovens & dough
  • OR… have some pizza/dough experience and want to take it to the next level

No Neapolitan experience yet? No problem. If you’ve got the basics and the passion, our Rudy’s Pizzaiolo Academy will give you the skills, training and support to master the craft.

Ready to be part of something big?
