Policy for relief chefs coming in over the winter

Relief has remained steady, but we are expecting the work to slow down in November as expected for the time of year before picking up again in December.

If you are not working and have availability please do send a copy of your CV in and we will chase references as standard.

We can mark you available but priority is given to those who have work on placements via CIS over the summer.

For existing chefs who have done work all year round would suggest 40 – 60% chance of getting you work over the winter.

If you can also get in touch with your availability for Christmas and New year.
