A high flying Sous Chef wanted for a very well known, established, high end property working to 1 Rosette in South Wales. The property is stunning, with views second to none and a lifestyle perfect for someone looking to escape the rat race. This is going to be a brilliant role for someone.

The salary is negotiable around £40k+, with very high quality single person accommodation that is fully expensed, so no bills. The accommodation element is estimated to be worth at least £1200 per month.

This role is NOT the norm. The plan is to attract a level of talent that aligns perfectly with the Directors' ethos, someone who can support the current service offering and be central to the long-term strategy for the business. You will be working closely with a very strong, established Head Chef.

Our client is looking for a professional, diligent and skilled Restaurant Sous Chef with experience of leading similar high quality teams, ideally at the premium or fine dining end of the market. The Directors are keen to hire a successful and proven entrepreneurial Sous Chef with a long-term track record.

This will be a hands-on Sous Chef role, leading a team from the front, and would suit someone who wants to break free from their current company constraints and excel in their next move. You will have autonomy and the space to spread your wings. The F&B numbers here are good, but there is more to do, so this role would suit someone who thrives in volume environments with many moving parts.

The client is looking to secure someone for the long term with this appointment. They are open to candidates from high quality Restaurant, Gastro Pub, Hotel, or Hotel Resort restaurant backgrounds, but you must have been working at Sous Chef level for a minimum of 2 years.

This is a Sous Chef role that isn't going to be for everyone. It's aimed at a Sous Chef who is growing tired of the thankless corporate environment and all of the daily tick box exercises and paperwork that goes with it, or a Sous Chef at that 'sweet spot' in their career who thinks their only two options are to either manage a larger team and push for a Head Chef role within 6-12 months or set up on their own.

It's for a Sous Chef who knows that there is a lot more to running a high quality kitchen than just running shifts. It's for a Sous Chef who wants the term 'my guests' to actually mean something. Perhaps most importantly, it's for a Sous Chef in companies who don't want to lose the fire in their belly simply because their current company has nothing better to offer them.

If this sounds like you, send your CV over and we'll have a look at it for you.
