We're recruiting for a Chef de Partie to join our kitchen team at The Fish Hotel, here in the beautiful Cotswolds.
Family owned and part of the Small Luxury Hotels collection, here at the 4 AA red star The Fish Hotel we serve stunning, sustainable Cornish seafood in a rustic woodland setting on our 500 acre Cotswolds Estate - it's the perfect place to escape city life and breathe some fresh air into your career. Working in our 2 AA Rosette kitchen, you'll join a hardworking and organised team. The kitchen features top-of-the-range equipment, and with ongoing investment into the department, it really is a excellent work environment. With events, working lunches, and a fun gourmet hot dog menu for our bar and room service, every day is different and there is so much to learn!
All chefs' career development is a core focus for us, and at Farncombe we have many opportunities for you to gain new skills and experience a wide variety of menus, restaurant styles and sizes, all featuring the very best of fresh ingredients.
