A Stage Unlike Any Other
In 1863, a group of artists, writers, and free thinkers gathered with a shared conviction: that the finest conversation, the boldest ideas, and the warmest hospitality belonged together under one roof. Charles Dickens dined here. Whistler argued here. Rodin was inspired here.
The Arts Club was born not as a venue, but as a living expression of creative life — and it has never stopped.
At the heart of that life today are the people and spaces that bring our club to life every day. This is more than an operation — it is an environment where members connect, create, and return time and time again because something about it feels truly special.
It takes an exceptional person to be part of that.
That person might be you.
Join Our Kitchen Team
We are looking for a passionate and motivated Senior Chef de Partie to join our talented kitchen brigade. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to develop their culinary career within a professional, high-quality hospitality environment.
Working alongside experienced chefs, you'll gain hands-on experience across the kitchen while helping to deliver exceptional food and maintaining the highest standards of quality, hygiene, and presentation.
What You'll Be Doing
- Take ownership of your kitchen section, ensuring it is fully prepared, organised, and ready for service.
- Prepare, cook, and present dishes consistently to a high standard, following recipes and presentation specifications.
- Lead and support junior members of the kitchen team, including Commis Chefs and Kitchen Assistants, providing guidance and on-the-job training.
- Complete all mise en place efficiently and ensure your section is fully stocked and service-ready.
- Maintain high standards of food quality, consistency, portion control, and presentation throughout service.
- Work closely with the Head Chef, Sous Chef, and wider kitchen team to ensure smooth and efficient service.
- Monitor food quality, freshness, and stock levels, supporting effective stock rotation, storage, and waste management.
- Maintain excellent food hygiene, health and safety, and cleanliness standards at all times.
- Take responsibility for maintaining high standards on your section and proactively identify and resolve issues during service.
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.
