Chef Role at Roseland Parc
We are pleased to be recruiting a Chef to play a key role in delivering an exceptional dining experience at the brand new Bistro at Roseland Parc.
This is a part-time role working 30 hours per week (3 days over 7) - some shifts will be evenings and weekends, so flexibility is required.
As Chef, you’ll support the Head Chef in leading the kitchen team to deliver fresh, high-quality, and sustainable food and beverage services. You’ll role-model excellent standards, ensure compliance with all safety and hygiene requirements, and help shape a menu that delights our residents and guests alike.
In the absence of the Head Chef, you’ll take full responsibility for the smooth running of the kitchen - ensuring exceptional service, managing costs effectively, and supporting a culture of continuous improvement.
Key Responsibilities
- Support the Head Chef with day-to-day operations and delivery of the restaurant and village catering services
- Lead and inspire the kitchen team to uphold high standards of food safety, hygiene, and presentation
- Contribute to menu development, specials, and events, balancing creativity with cost control
- Monitor food and beverage quality, profitability, and customer satisfaction
- Ensure compliance with food safety, HACCP, COSHH, and allergen management
- Train, coach, and supervise staff, fostering a collaborative and positive working environment
- Build strong relationships with residents and guests, ensuring a welcoming, customer-focused service
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.
