Are you looking to take the next step in your culinary career within one of the UK's most exciting farm-to-fork kitchens?
We are currently recruiting talented chefs at Demi Chef de Partie, Chef de Partie, Junior Sous Chef and Sous Chef level to join an award-winning estate set within over 400 acres of beautiful countryside, just an hour outside London.
For candidates relocating, staff accommodation is available, making this an excellent opportunity to escape the city while continuing to work at the very highest level.
Home to a Michelin Green Star restaurant, organic Home Farm and biodynamic Market Garden, this unique estate offers chefs the rare opportunity to cook with incredible ingredients harvested fresh each day, working alongside growers and producers who are as passionate about sustainability as the kitchen team itself.
Whether you're looking to develop your skills within fine dining, work with exceptional produce, or progress your career within a business that genuinely invests in its people, this is an outstanding opportunity.
The Role
Working within a highly skilled brigade, you'll be involved in producing exceptional food across breakfast, lunch and dinner service, using some of the finest seasonal ingredients available anywhere in the UK.
Depending on your level of experience, responsibilities will include:
Preparing and cooking dishes to an exceptional standard
Running or supporting your own section during service
Working closely with the senior kitchen team to deliver consistently outstanding food
Supporting and mentoring junior chefs
Maintaining excellent food hygiene and health & safety standards
Working with hyper-seasonal produce sourced directly from the estate
Contributing ideas towards seasonal menu development
Maintaining exceptional organisation, consistency and attention to detail throughout service
What We're Looking For
Experience as a Demi Chef de Partie, Chef de Partie, Junior Sous Chef or Sous Chef
A genuine passion for seasonal, produce-led cooking
Strong organisational skills and excellent attention to detail
Positive attitude with a willingness to learn and develop
Ability to perform within a busy professional kitchen
Excellent communication and teamwork skills
An interest in sustainability and farm-to-fork cooking
Experience within Michelin, Rosette or luxury hotel kitchens would be advantageous but is by no means essential.
What's On Offer
Basic salaries ranging from £28,000 - £42,000, depending on experience
Approx. £7,800 per year in gratuities
Staff accommodation available
Private healthcare
Enhanced holiday allowance
Life assurance from day one
