What you’ll be doing?

This Breakfast Chef role is perfect for someone who loves the buzz of a busy morning service, works well under pressure, has great food presentation and loves producing a satisfying breakfast for our guests.

What you’ll need?

• You won’t be expected to have exceptional food knowledge but you will need to have basic cookery skills with either proven experience or a Professional Cookery Level 2 / Commis Chef Apprenticeship Standard qualification;
• A passion for food and produce, with a pride in its delivery to the plate;
• Your potential, your commitment, and your ability to work under pressure alongside being an excellent team player, is every bit as important to us as your knife-handling skills.

We are recruiting 2 chefs for this position, 1 x 30 hour contract and 1 x 40 hour contract.

EHC are committed to offering opportunities to those groups who may be under represented within our workforce – within our kitchens, we would particularly welcome the addition of a greater representation of female chefs.

• Generous Time Off: 31 days of leave, increasing to 33 with service.
• Monthly Tips: Fairly shared service charge/gratuities, all paid on second paydate in the month.
• Discounts & Perks: Exclusive savings at 800+ retailers, gyms, restaurants, days out, and utilities.
• Wellbeing Center: Access to Hello Fresh recipes, fitness videos, and financial planning tools.
• Health & Wellness Plans: Dental, vision, alternative care, and 24/7 GP access.
• Sustainable Commuting: Cycle-to-Work and Electric Vehicle Leasing options.
• Exclusive EHC Perks: Discounted stays, spa treatments, golf, and leisure at our properties.
• The Happy Hub: Our reward and recognition platform where you can send peer-to-peer cards, earn monetary rewards, be celebrated as Employee of the Month, and receive long-service vouchers.
• Genuine Wellbeing Support: We’re here to support your financial, mental, and physical wellbeing both via our supportive teams and Hospitality Action.
• Employee Comm’s: Stay connected through Eden Engage for all the latest team news.
• Grow with Eden: Develop with us through apprenticeships and leadership programs like RISE & THRIVE.
• Family-Friendly Policies: Enhanced leave and return-to-work financial support for life’s key moments.
• Everyday Essentials: Free parking, meals on duty, uniform provided and a footwear allowance.
