Come join us at The Machrie..

With panoramic views across the golf links and stunning ocean sun sets, Restaurant 18 and our Stag lounge are true jewels in the crown here at The Machrie. The hotel only opened late 2018 but already has been recognised as "Scottish Hotel of the Year 2020" and our historic golf links today is ranked in the top 20 courses in Scotland. There is no doubt our F&B operation has suffered with all the covid measures and closures over the last 18 months as we were such a new business, but we now feel it is time for our food to shine!

Our guests come from both the island and far and wide, attracted by the beauty and challenge of our links course, the wonderful wildlife, unforgettable whisky indulgences (after all there are 10 Whisky distilleries on Islay) or indeed just to relax, take in the fresh air and great views and delight in some fantastic food.

Restaurant and Bar 18 is a real hub of the hotel from early morning breakfast (ready for your tee off time) to morning coffee and cake, bar snacks for the hungry golfer or lunch with extras for that special treat and the evening views and sunsets set the scene for a dining experience showcasing the best of Islay and the coast with whisky treats and excellent wine selection.

Working with a small passionate team cooking food from fresh you will support our new Executive Chef in creating a legacy at The Machrie for our food. Our aspiration is to work towards one Rosette by the end of this year and move on to a second Rosette next year. We want to be known for offering excellent ‘casual fine dining’.

Linking with local island and coastal suppliers we have focused on celebrating the best of Scottish coastal provenance from land and sea to take centre stage for our hotel guests, golf members and island locals.

Leading and working with the team on the day to day delivery of service and management of the kitchen you will be a key senior member of the team.

Producing creative, innovative and inspirational items to the highest standard at all times you will also be supportive and help develop the team skills and contributions.

What we are looking for
You will have outstanding current and relevant experience, ideally within 4* or 5* hotels and understand the importance of being professional, helpful and doing everything you can to exceed our guest's expectations.
Maintaining a can-do and problem-solving attitude, you will be passionate about the highest possible standards and have an eye for detail.
Creative and experienced to Senior Chef de Partie level, you will be keen to help bring recognition to The Machrie. Working as part of the team you work hard, support each other and have fun doing it.
We accept applications from couples, but ask that they work in different departments.
Benefits we offer to our team
In addition to your basic salary you can also benefit financially from:
Guest gratuities are shared amongst the team on a monthly basis (approx. £900 per annum if working full time)
Team Loyalty Recognition Incentive Scheme - worth up to £2,000. This scheme rewards the hard work and commitment The Machrie team members collectively put into looking after our guests between 1st March and 31st October. Those completing full service during this period are eligible to receive £2,000 lump sum, paid in November (T&Cs do apply). This Scheme is also open to team members joining partway through the season.

Islay Living out Allowance - those resident on Islay and not living in company supported accommodation can also benefit from a lump sum payment of up to £200 per month to assist with living costs (pro-rata for part time workers).

'Refer a friend' scheme - team members who refer a friend to work with us at The Machrie can benefit from a £750 thank you payment.
We know island life is not for everyone, but if you don’t need the bright lights to be entertained, and instead can equally enjoy a simpler life appreciating nature’s glorious gifts, then why not get in touch?
