Job description:

A 10 bedroom hotel is looking for their next Head Chef . The role would be for a sole chef but there will be a significant handover period to ensure you're well equipped to take the reigns. The owners are looking for someone who will work collaboratively with them to maintain the high standards of cookery.

There's a long serving team around the hotel who are able to assist during busier periods, but with low covers and only rare lunch services this role would be a great fit for someone with good organisational skills who's self motivated and happy to work under their own steam.

Applicants must have demonstrable longevity on their CVs as the owners are keen to ensure that the incoming Head Chef is able to make a name for themselves. They're foward thinking and willing to invest in equipment in order to provide support for accolades and awards.

How to apply:

Please send an up to date CV with contactable references to ian@chefsinscotland.co.uk quoting ref 166090

Work for partners:

Yes, positions available FOH and in the SPA
