This is a flagship site — and you’ll be the driving force behind its success. \n You’ll lead a team of three chefs, set the culinary vision, and deliver food that goes far beyond “canteen dining.” Think restaurant-quality food, done efficiently, creatively, and consistently. \n This role is perfect for a strong Head Chef or an ambitious Sous Chef ready to step up and lead something of their own. \n What You’ll Be Responsible For: \n\n • Leading and inspiring a brigade of 3 chefs with confidence, clarity, and high standards\n, • Designing and delivering fresh, seasonal menus that people genuinely look forward to\n, • Producing outstanding breakfast and lunch services for a high-volume, quality-focused site\n, • Creating food that reflects modern dining trends while remaining commercially smart\n, • Maintaining impeccable standards across food quality, presentation, hygiene, and safety\n, • Building trusted relationships with on-site stakeholders through consistent excellence\n, • Taking full ownership of your kitchen — this is your operation to run\n\n Who Thrives in This Role \n You’ll succeed here if you: \n\n • Are currently a Head Chef or a Sous Chef ready for your next step\n, • Come from a restaurant, gastro pub, or quality-driven fresh food background\n, • Care deeply about flavour, presentation, and consistency\n, • Are a natural leader who brings the best out of others\n, • Take pride in building something, not just maintaining it\n, • Want structure, balance, and long-term progression without compromising standards\n\n Talent, attitude, and leadership matter most. \n Why This Role Stands Out: \n\n • Monday to Friday daytimes only — your evenings and weekends are yours\n, • Daytime hours — real work-life balance\n, • £50,000 salary plus great benefits including free car parking\n, • Brand-new kitchen and operation — no inherited problems\n, • Creative freedom within a supportive, professional environment\n, • A role where food is genuinely valued, not cut corners\n\n
