Ready to take your multi:site culinary experience to the next level?
Im recruiting a Group Executive Chef for a leading independent contract caterer, looking for an exceptional chef to influence food, people and standards across a growing national portfolio.
You dont necessarily need to already have the Group Executive Chef title, but you must have multi:site experience and be confident supporting chefs and operations across different locations.

- Business mileage and travel expenses paid
- UK:wide travel fully supported

About You

Personality is really important for this one.
Were looking for someone warm, engaging, energetic and down to earth . Someone who can walk into another Head Chefs kitchen and make them feel supported rather than inspected.
Youll be just as comfortable cooking alongside a CDP as mentoring an Executive Chef or presenting to a board:level client . Youll be curious about food, eat out, follow whats happening in restaurants and bring that energy and inspiration back into the business.
This is a brilliant next step for someone with multi:site experience who wants more influence, national exposure and a genuine route into future senior culinary leadership.
