Breakfast Chef – Courtyard

Are you a motivated and reliable chef who takes pride in delivering quality food and supporting a great kitchen team? We’re looking for a Breakfast Chef to join our kitchen at Courtyard helping us deliver a consistently high standard of food for our guests.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a positive, professional hotel kitchen environment with flexible hours, strong brand standards, and the backing of the world’s largest hotel company.

About the Role

We’d love for you to come and meet our hiring manager at the hotel, if this role sounds like a good fit, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

This is a part-time position, 32 hours per week over 4 days at £12.95 per hour. Shifts are primarily breakfast focused.

  • Monday to Friday 3:30am to 12:00pm
  • Saturday and Sunday 5:30am to 11:30 am

At Marriott, guest satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do. Breakfast is our main opportunity to create a positive and lasting impression, and our kitchen team takes real pride in the quality, presentation, and care put into every dish.

Key Responsibilities

Once trained and settled in, you’ll be expected to confidently support the kitchen team by:

  • Preparing and cooking breakfast items in line with recipes, quality standards, and presentation guidelines
  • Assisting with the smooth running of breakfast service, ensuring hot and cold items are replenished as needed
  • Maintaining excellent food safety, hygiene, allergen awareness, and cleanliness standards
  • Monitoring food quality and portion control
  • Communicating effectively with chefs and front-of-house teams during service
  • Assisting with food preparation and kitchen cleaning before and after service
  • Completing food logs, temperature checks, and other required records
  • Supporting the wider kitchen team during busy periods

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
