Head Chef, Old School Restaurant, Skye and Lochalsh

Old school Restaurant has been family ran for over 30 years and is looking for a talented, reliable and level headed chef to lead our kitchen. They would need to be dedicated and obliging to customers needs and understand the importance of good working relations with front of house staff.

The head chef’s main objectives would be to develop the menus, train the kitchen staff to ensure their efficiency and maintain high standards of quality. They would be responsible for all the food served. They would liaise with the general manager and provide data for financial reports such as gross profit, staff costs and then strive to hit targets and keep within budgets.

The manager would lend assistance to chef with time consuming paperwork like rotas, ordering and pricing leaving the chef with more time to develop menu, prepare for service and train and maximise the performance of their kitchen staff.

Due to the nature of the area the position has been posted as seasonal so an hourly rate has been applied and would allow for a dedicated chef to over an eight month period to earn very well. If preferred the right candidate could be offered a permanent salaried position. This would dependant on experience and typically be around £30,000 plus tips and bonus.

Kitchen is undergoing refurbishment - new flooring and wall cladding and equipment. We will reopen open mid-march.
