We’re looking for an experienced Kitchen Manager to join the Butlin's Team based in Bognor Regis. We truly believe that variety is the spice of life and in this role you’ll have the opportunity to lead and develop the skills of our team in our fantastic American Diner. If these flavours tickle your taste buds, then The Diner is the place to go. Our guests are looking to load up on juicy made-to-order signature burgers, Louisiana chicken fingers served on Texas toast, sweet and smoky BBQ-glazed ribs and deliciously creamy shakes. They really relish the good times!

A Butlin’s resort is the home of getting stuck in and no trip to the seaside would be complete without great food and we offer this to every guest, every time in our restaurant. You will be responsible for running a busy kitchen which caters for approximately [number of] covers serving American style food through busy bottomless brunch, lunch and dinner services.

Our chefs at Butlin’s are special, and our guests love returning to our restaurants as part of their holiday experience. The successful candidate should be fun, keen to join in, work as part of a team, and interested in ensuring our guests have a great time, every time.

Typical working hours are five days over seven, covering 40 hours per week, and include participation in a bonus scheme.
