  fresh, seasonal, and locally sourced food
  
• A positive, proactive
  attitude and great attention to detail
  
• Confident in leading
  sections and supporting junior team members
  
• Driver with own
  transport is strongly advised due to the location
  
• A team player who
  thrives in a close-knit, supportive kitchen
  

Why Apply?

This is a rare opportunity to join a highly respected
kitchen team in a forward-thinking venue that values its people as much as its
