Sous Chef

A 10 bedroom hotel is looking for a Sous Chef to collaborate with the Head Chef, and cover their days off. The standard of food is high and the Chef and owners are chasing accolades with rosettes the target for this year. .

You should be comfortable with running a service by yourself due to the low cover, but there's a small team in place who are happy to jump in when needed. Both the Head Chef and Sous Chef positions are currently open, and I'm happy to look at dual applications. The owners are also happy to look at skilled front of house and spa staff.

There's accommodation available with this role on site.
