Verve People are hiring a Senior Sous Chef for a luxury Rosette location.
We're on the look out for a Senior Sous Chef to join our fantastic team of chefs at Farncombe. Tucked into the beautiful woodlands on our 500-acre Cotswolds Estate, we have two restaurants: one with 3 AA rosettes and Michelin Guide listing, and our "chef's table" 12-seater tasting restaurant, which has 4 AA rosettes and is also Michelin Guide listed. Our successful candidate will have the opportunity to work within both.
You'll help lead a team of hard-working, friendly, and organised chefs. Our kitchen boasts excellent ongoing investment and high-quality equipment, creating a great work and learning environment. We work with amazing ingredients and suppliers, and have a strong passion for sustainability and responsible sourcing.
The restaurant is overseen by Head Chef Mathieu Blanchard, who will ensure that you learn, develop, and flourish on the Estate. If you've had experience working in high-quality, similar-sized kitchens at a Sous Chef level previously, we'd love to hear from you.
We offer a salary package of just over £44,000 per year (£41,558 basic, plus around £3,000-£3,500 per year in service charge) based on a 48-hour week. We can also consider live-in accommodation while you get settled. Our 500-acre Estate, which includes three award-winning hotels and kitchens (including Foxhill Manor and The Fish Hotel), is the perfect place to develop and learn, and we regularly promote chefs across the estate to help boost their learning and career development.
