Chef - Buffet Restaurant in King's Lynn

We’re looking for experienced Chefs to join the Butlin's Buffets team based in Skegness. In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to lead and develop the skills of our team in one of our fantastic buffet restaurants.

As a chef, your responsibilities will be a key factor in our kitchens. You will support the Junior Kitchen Manager and oversee the daily operation in your own section, ensuring efficiency and compliance with food safety policies. You will also maintain a clean and organised workstation, always adhering to health and safety regulations, demonstrating these responsibilities as a behaviour standard to the Commis Chefs you will lead, train, and mentor with guidance and support as needed.

This is a 35 hour role, working 5 days over 7 including weekends, paid fortnightly. Breakfast shifts are 4am - 12pm and dinner shifts are 11am - 7.30pm. Flexibility is essential to meet the needs of the business and support the team. Live-in accommodation may be available if over 18 and relocating to the area, subject to a DBS check.

We are looking for individuals with experience at a similar level. You will need to be hard-working and determined, a reliable person who likes to get things done and who will look for better ways for the team to consistently deliver our brand standards. We seek candidates who are energetic and enthusiastic, high-spirited and fun-loving, and who understand their role and the value they can add to the guest experience by unleashing the potential of the team.

You should have passed your Level 3 Food Safety qualification and be confident in leading a team to continually deliver high standards in a fast-paced and busy kitchen environment. You will also be responsible for managing margins and controlling costs, along with all things health, safety, and hygiene related.

We think our chefs at Butlin’s are something special, and we know our guests love to keep returning to our restaurants as part of their holiday experience. The cherry on the top for the successful candidate is to be fun, keen to join in and work as part of a team, and interested in ensuring our guests have a great time, every time.

At Butlin’s, we’re all about fun, excitement, and adventure by the bucketload! For over 80 years, we’ve been delighting hundreds of thousands of guests each year, whether on a non-stop action family break or our epic adult-only Big Weekenders. Our culture is one of the best things about working at Butlin’s, where we provide our guests with an Altogether More Entertaining and Fun Break, brought to life through our three mighty values.

If you want a role where you Create Smiles, where you aren’t afraid to Get Stuck In, and where the team genuinely Cares For Each Other – this could be the perfect fit for you. There has never been a more exciting time to join Butlin’s!
