Salary: Up to £32,000

This stunning period hotel, nestled on the edge of the North Yorkshire moors, is looking to recruit an experienced Sous Chef to assist the Head Chef in leading a talented team in this fine dining kitchen. The emphasis is on local, seasonal foods, cooked using modern and interesting techniques with the latest chefs' kit. This is a great opportunity for a career-minded chef to make a name for themselves in a supportive environment for the region's leading Independent Gastro pub and Hotel group.

Our clients are looking for applicants who can demonstrate:

1. A keen eye for detail and true passion for their craft.
2. Experience working in a rosette or Michelin kitchen (advantageous).
3. A career-minded chef eager to progress in their career.
4. A proven longevity in roles; no jumpy chefs here!
5. A character who can enthuse and excite junior chefs, leading by example rather than through shouting.
6. Detailed knowledge of kitchen management, costings, and experience working with seasonal produce (beneficial).

In return, our clients offer the opportunity to work within one of Yorkshire's finest Country Hotels, producing a modern British menu with fabulous produce from the local moors and coast. There is clear progression potential within this group of high-quality country inns and hotels throughout Yorkshire, alongside a very attractive basic salary, up to £3K a year in gratuities, and a kitchen focused on quality rather than quantity of covers.
