We want our Head Chef to have input into THEIR menu as we value your ideas and creativity. We just ask for a few things; that you will lead and inspire your team from the front. You will be a natural leader and coach your brigade. We believe if you teach/inspire someone with something new every day, they will come back day after day. We want creative, passionate people to deliver consistent, fresh, seasonal and most importantly, LOCAL food. We expect good health & safety standards, and a well-trained team. We would also be looking for a Head Chef to join us on a long-term basis and really build on the brand and reputation of the business.
We are not interested in foams, gels & smears! We need proper chefs that cook great ingredients perfectly every time, we want our main menu to change with the seasons or availability, and specials that show imagination, flair and personality. Consistency is key!
You will work closely with your Hotel Manager so that you can partner the finest food with the very best of drink. We have exceptional game and seafood right on our doorstep from our own Estate, as well as award-winning whisky and gin!
