Chef de Partie, St Columba Hotel, Argyll and the Islands

Senior Chef de Partie

The St Columba Hotel is located on a very beautiful island off the West Coast of Scotland. Our hotel has 27 bedrooms and a restaurant which serves up to 80 for dinner and many more at lunchtime.

The quality of our food is central to the hotel’s reputation and our kitchen is a busy place. We are committed to serving freshly prepared, delicious food. Our certified organic garden produces much of our salad and vegetables; breads and baking are produced on the premises, and we buy fish and seafood directly from a local boat.

Features of the role:-
• Will gain experience in running a busy high quality kitchen. The Senior Chef de Partie will be the 3rd chef in the kitchen, so at points during the season, (when either the Head Chef or the Sous Chef are on holiday, and the other one is having a day off), you will be in charge. Obviously we’ll give you the help and support required to be able to do this.
• Newly refurbished kitchen (due to be completed at the end of February)
• High quality local produce
• Good work life balance
• Good working environment, (we work hard to ensure an ordered, calm, positive atmosphere in the kitchen)

The successful candidate is likely to have a number of years experience as a Chef de Partie in a similar establishment to ours. This is an ideal opportunity for those looking to prepare for a role as Sous Chef in the future. We value ‘people skills’ above all else here, so if you’re reliable, calm, positive and actively enjoy working with people, not against them, (particularly the other members of the kitchen team and front of house team), then this could well be the ideal opportunity for you.
