About Us
Wilson Vale is an established, quality-led contract caterer. We work with amazing clients across the UK who place huge value on great food as a key part of their culture and community.

We are looking for a positive, honest and reliable Chef de Partie to join our friendly and hardworking team. In return, we can offer excellent training, development and career progression opportunities for the right candidate.
