What's involved? As Head Chef you will have a wide range of autonomy on all things kitchen related and be passionate about excellent culinary standards and practices. You will, as Head Chef, have flair and imagination to develop exciting, innovative and creative menus to captivate the hotel guests from breakfast through to dinner. Naturally you will be coming with your own ideas on how to develop and improve the way the food operation functions and have the background to show you are able to do this to completion. A big part of the hotel groups ethos is their green credentials and a Head Chef with this in mind will be at a distinct advantage.
