We are looking for a Head Chef for The Botanist - Albert Dock, Liverpool
Great food has the power to bring people together. It's the centrepiece of celebrations, the reason friends stay for another round and often the memory guests take home with them long after they've left. We're looking for a Head Chef who understands that.
At The Botanist, you'll lead a talented kitchen team in delivering fresh, vibrant food that helps create memorable guest experiences every single day. You'll combine creativity, leadership and consistency to ensure every dish reflects the quality, care and hospitality we're known for.
This role is about more than running a kitchen. It's about creating an environment where people can do their best work, where standards are high, development is encouraged and the energy of the team can be felt in every service.
