Why choose our Client?

Our client is a 4-star hotel with a good mix of business and leisure guests. During the week, the hotel caters for conferences in its meeting rooms, which can accommodate up to 270 people. In the evenings, the hotel shifts focus to leisure, with guests enjoying spa breaks or visiting nearby attractions.

The hotel features a 100-seater restaurant with a diverse menu from around the world and a 40-seater bar offering lighter meals and snacks. Weddings are also hosted here, providing a variety of activities.

The hotel is easily accessible via the M20, and for non-drivers, several bus stops are just a 2-minute walk away, facilitating easy daily commuting.

What’s involved?

As an experienced Chef de Partie, you will be part of a kitchen team of 6, preparing, cooking, and presenting dishes to a high standard. You will familiarize yourself with the menu, ensuring timely preparation and adherence to company standards using provided recipes.

Reporting to senior chefs, you should have excellent communication skills and work well under pressure, as the hotel is often fully booked. You will also assist in training junior chefs and monitor portion and wastage control to maintain profit margins.
