Package
Why choose our Client?
Our client is a luxury hotel and spa, set on the shores of England’s largest natural lake; Lake Windermere. Situated just a short walk from the nearest town yet, is also conveniently located for nature explorers too.
Serving up an array of flavoursome modern British dishes in the main restaurant, using seasonal ingredients, the hotel also offers diners a more relaxed setting in the lounge area which offers guests a classic afternoon tea as well as lighter meals and snacks. There is also a popular outdoor terrace with additional seating.
The hotel also has a large C&B trade with its setting providing a stunning backdrop for weddings, celebrations, events and conferences alike.
What’s involved?
As a Chef de Partie, you will work as part of a talented team of 7 chefs plus KP’s – most of who have worked there for several years.
You will prepare, cook and present modern British dishes using seasonal ingredients and will be able to competently manage the day-to-day activities of the section you’re working on. You can expect to cater for up to 200 covers at breakfast, and up to 120 covers at dinner.
As a Chef de Partie, you will assist with managing and training any junior chefs working with you, and will also help the senior chefs in developing new dishes for the menus.
At all times, you should ensure that both you and your team have high standards of food hygiene and follow the rules of health and safety as well as monitoring portion and waste control to maintain profit margins. You will already have a good understanding of cooking techniques and be able to demonstrate this but will be willing to learn new styles and techniques to develop the business as well as your own experience.
C&B wise, the hotel has the capability to cater for up to 200 covers so candidates with previous experience of volume catering would be preferable as when there is an event on as well as diners in the restaurant, it can get pretty busy!
Staff accommodation is available, if required.
