We are looking to further strengthen our kitchen brigade, with people who are used to working in a busy environment.
This role is offered on a full-time basis with a great work-life balance of 36.5 hours per week, working on a rota basis including some evenings and weekends.
You will already be working in a professional kitchen and will have the skills to help train and develop some of our junior team members. Based in our main production kitchen, you will support the running of the conference and hospitality sections by planning ahead, organising the team, and ensuring a faultless service delivery every time.
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.
We are seeking a passionate person with the drive to improve and deliver on the creative edge. As a senior chef in our team, you will have enthusiasm and drive to further develop your existing skills.
You must display initiative and self-reliance, but also be able to contribute to and work within a large, fast-paced, and successful team.
The Hospitality and retail departments have a diverse range of outlets and styles of catering across the campus, including catering for students, conferences, dinners, cafes and bars, restaurants, Graduation, and Open/Visitor days.
We reserve the right to withdraw the post if suitable applicants are found.
We welcome applications from people in all diversity groups.
