Job Description

We are seeking a talented and passionate Chef to join our culinary team. The ideal candidate will possess a strong background in food preparation and culinary arts, with a flair for creativity and a commitment to delivering exceptional dining experiences. As a Chef, you will lead the kitchen staff, manage food production, and ensure that all dishes are prepared to the highest standards of quality and safety. You will mainly be the only chef on duty at the time, due to the nature of the business, so you must be confident working alone. When business increases, this will then be re-looked at. This will be on a Marstons menu.

Monitor inventory levels, ordering supplies as needed to maintain optimal stock levels. Maintain cleanliness and organisation of the kitchen area, ensuring compliance with health regulations. Collaborate with front-of-house staff to ensure seamless service during peak times.

Skills

Proficient in food preparation techniques and culinary skills with a passion for cooking. Excellent understanding of hospitality principles and customer service excellence. Knowledge of food production processes and best practices for kitchen management. Familiarity with food safety standards and regulations to ensure compliance at all times. Ability to multitask effectively while maintaining attention to detail in all aspects of the role. Strong communication skills to liaise effectively with both kitchen and front-of-house teams.
If you are an enthusiastic Chef looking to make your mark in an exciting culinary environment, we encourage you to apply!
