What you need

Some experience in the kitchen or as a chef would be great, but it isn’t essential. It’s about what you bring as a person. If you can offer the following, we want to hear from you.

• A successful background as a team leader (this could be within any industry).
• Enthusiasm for food, cooking, and achieving high standards.
• A natural ability to quickly learn new things (like kitchen management).
• Passion for delivering an amazing experience to our guests.

What will I do as a Kitchen Team Leader?

• Cook our legendary breakfasts and mouth-watering evening meals.
• Work alongside the Deputy Hotel Manager to deliver both a great guest and a great team experience thanks to your organisation and calming presence.
• Monitor breakfast and dinner quality and service scores, manage food stock and stock control.
• Set your team up for success with effective briefings throughout the week.
• Make sure the whole team follows our procedures, training, and compliance checks to serve food that delights our guests.
