| Job description: | This privately owned Country House is situated in an estate of almost 2000 acres. There's a role available with an immediate start for a Head Chef with rosette experience and an enthusiasm for C & B. The role is to cater for up to 3 weddings a week, with scope for development into an Executive chef role in the near future for the right candidate as a new property is being acquired. Whilst weddings are the primary focus, there are other events throughout the year, and scope to assist with developing further. You'll be tasked with writing well budgeted and costed menus in an effort to improve the food offering across the estate. You'll be in charge of ordering, sourcing goods and must be comfortable being face to face with customers. The supportive owners are keen for operations to run as smoothly as possible, and are happy to invest in any equipment which will assist with creating the vision of producing a high quality fresh "estate to plate" food offering. |
