• Help create memorable moments for our loyal and unique guest base
• Grow your skills in a kitchen that celebrates innovation, sustainability and teamwork

• Experience as a Demi Chef de Partie – or ready to step into the role
• Background in a busy kitchen (fine dining or Rosette-level experience is a bonus)
• Passion for food, people and the planet – and a desire to make a difference
• A team player with a curious mind and eagerness to learn

• Competitive salary plus generous service charge
• Free membership to the Goodwood Health Club
• Free tickets to our iconic motorsport and horseracing events
• Comprehensive wellbeing package including a healthcare cash plan
