Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This isn't your typical Senior Sous Chef role. You'll be working behind the scenes at iconic events, from movie premieres rubbing shoulders with A-listers, Wimbledon's hallowed grounds, and the elegance of Royal Ascot. No two days are ever the same!
What You'll Be Doing
- Variety every day – tastings, menu development, client events, and operational planning
- Support and mentor a talented brigade across multiple London venues and events
- Work with premium ingredients and deliver food at the highest standard
- Work / life balance that actually exists – Primarily daytime hours with flexibility for select evening events and weekends. Because great chefs deserve great lives too.
What We're Looking For
- Strong background in high-volume hospitality, luxury events, fine dining, or 5-star hotels
- Previous experience as a Sous Chef or Senior Sous Chef leading successful kitchen teams
- Passion for developing people, maintaining standards, and driving consistency
- High standards with a positive, collaborative, and hands-on approach
