Sous Chef
Producing and developing the highest standard of food within the required time and financial targets, you’ll step into the Head Chef’s shoes when required. You also have ideas of your own, and will be keen to develop new initiatives to improve standards.
Enthusiastic about food, you’ll research innovative ideas and contribute to all areas of food production, from menu planning capturing food trends, to delighting our customers. An effective communicator, you’re a professional who promotes team spirit, company culture and can switch the speed of your work when the business needs you to. With a strong customer focus, you’ll gain valuable feedback to measure success and be committed to continuous learning by attending workshops and forums. And while your kitchen management skills may be at a basic level, you’re ready to improve and grow.
