Junior Kitchen Manager – Firehouse Grill • Butlin’s
Description
Ready to turn up the heat, lead a sizzling kitchen team, and embrace the holiday vibe?
At Butlin’s, great holidays start with incredible food. We’re looking for an energetic, passionate Junior Kitchen Manager to take charge at our high-energy, open-kitchen restaurant: the Firehouse Grill!
From tongue-tingling chargrilled favourites and juicy chicken to signature build-your-own burgers and epic sharing platters, you’ll be at the heart of the action. Because it’s an open kitchen, our guests get to watch the culinary magic happen live.
We know our chefs at Butlin’s are something truly special. If you’re a high-spirited leader who loves a fast-paced environment, wants to join the fun, and can keep a large team inspired under the spotlight, this is your chance to shine!
You’ll be working a 40-hour week across 5 days out of 7. Because your schedule will cover our exciting adult breaks, your flexibility is key—some shifts involve late-night finishes.
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.
