Description
As Senior Chef de Partie, you’re a steady hand, a sharp eye, and a constant presence in the heat of service. You take ownership of your section and lead from the front - calmly, confidently, and with pride in every detail. You know that five-star standards aren’t just about presentation - they’re built on consistency, teamwork, and care behind the scenes.
Whether you're on sauce, garnish, larder or grill, you’re the kind of chef who sets the pace, supports the team, and ensures that every plate is worthy of the pass.
Because when the pressure’s on, you’re the one keeping standards high and service smooth.
What You Will Do In This Splendid Role:
Our team are the heart and soul of all we do. Here’s what you’ll be up to:
- Owning your section – managing mise-en-place, service and standards with precision, pride, and consistency.
- Supporting and guiding junior chefs, offering mentorship, sharing knowledge, and helping raise the standard across the brigade.
- Collaborating with senior chefs on menu development, dish refinement, and adapting to seasonal ingredients or guest preferences.
- Upholding the highest hygiene and food safety standards, ensuring full compliance with HACCP, Saeker, and hotel policies.
- Managing stock, portion control and wastage within your section to support food cost targets and efficient kitchen operations.
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.
