Premium Hospitality High:Profile Events Career Development
We're recruiting a Hospitality Head Chef to lead the premium culinary operation at a Stadium in London.
This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of the venue's hospitality food offer, leading the delivery across the à la carte restaurant, hospitality buffets, executive suites, private boxes and premium event spaces. Working closely with the Head of Culinary, you'll help shape innovative menus while leading a large casual brigade to deliver exceptional food at some of the UK's biggest sporting and entertainment events.
Peak season runs from August to September, with a quieter off-season offering a more balanced Monday-Friday working pattern, alongside concerts and selected events throughout the year.
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.
