  • A confident Senior Chef de Partie or Sous Chef with experience in quality-focused kitchens.
  • A love for food that’s both nourishing and exciting, think modern techniques, bold flavours, and balanced plates.
  • Strong organisational skills – you know your way around a rota, prep list, and stockroom.
  • Passion for developing others, you lead by example and raise the bar
  • A sharp eye for food safety, consistency, and detail.
  • Knowledge of portioning, food cost and waste control, flavour should be smart as well as satisfying.
