Head Chef - Accommodation Available
At Butcombe Pubs & Inns, we are all about great food, great service, and great company. As part of our team, you will be at the heart of a bustling kitchen, working in some of the UK’s most stunning and picturesque locations. If you are looking to make an impact and create memorable dining experiences, then Liberation is the place for you!
We are looking for a Head Chef who has a passion for cooking, thrives in a fast-paced environment, takes pride in delivering exceptional food and is compassionate when leading and motivating a team. If you have a flair for creating mouth-watering dishes and are ready to take the next step in your culinary career, then we want to hear from you!
From the outside it’s your archetypal country inn… step inside and the main bar and eating area offers a bespoke contemporary interior, with modern twists, creating a comfortable, relaxed dining and drinking atmosphere.
The menu offers imaginative food at reasonable prices, including traditional favourites, grills and scrummy puddings! The wine list is a bit different too; with plenty of choice and an extensive list of wines by the glass. If wine’s not your thing, don’t worry, try a pint from the great range of continental lagers, the locally brewed beers or the cask conditioned award-winning Liberation Ale.
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.
