What we expect from you
As Head Chef, you will craft an inspiring, ingredient-led menu that reflects both the provenance of the region and the food ethos of the Beckford Group. You will manage a small, dedicated team, oversee all kitchen operations, and ensure consistently exceptional standards. This role is perfect for a passionate, organised, and imaginative chef who thrives in a supportive, quality-driven environment and enjoys creating dishes that feel both comforting and elevated. We’re looking for someone with proven experience as a Head Chef, or a Senior Sous stepping up with confidence. A love for seasonal cooking and thoughtful menu creation is essential, along with strong leadership skills and the ability to remain calm, positive, and focused in a busy environment. You’ll be committed to delivering consistent quality and memorable hospitality, and already be experienced in leading a kitchen team (as a Senior Sous or Head Chef).
What you get from us
Working with us means joining a supportive, team-focused environment with ongoing training and real opportunities for development. You’ll also enjoy a hospitality rewards membership, group-wide discounts across stays and dining, savings on wines, and access to unique experiences and socials throughout the year. Plus, you’ll benefit from a 24-hour online GP and prescription service, as well as our Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) for confidential wellbeing support.
