Get paid for doing what you love, get loads of perks and benefits, learn something new and make a career for Life with Hotel Du Vin

At Hotel Du Vin fifty percent of all revenue comes from catering sales. In many of our hotels we can be busier in our Brasseries than most local restaurants! This gives our chef brigades a great opportunity to develop themselves within our kitchens. Learning new skills, working in fast paced environments under pressure and sometimes with produce they haven't worked with before.

We offer on the job training in house as well as working with our training provider to offer nationally recognized apprenticeships. If you want to progress your career a HDV kitchen is the place to do it. 4 of our Head Chefs have been promoted from within with 2 starting their journey as kitchen porters.

Working as Sous Chef in the kitchen you will support the Head Chef by ensuring the team deliver the brand standards in a smooth and consistent manner. Ideally you will have worked at this level before and be able to demonstrate your skills when developing the team beneath you.

This role offers a genuine opportunity for someone with ambition and leadership potential. We anticipate a possible Head Chef opportunity becoming available next summer and, for the right person, this position could provide a pathway towards that next step. We are committed to developing our people and would welcome applications from candidates who are keen to prove themselves, take ownership and grow their career within Hotel du Vin.

Do you want to be part of something different, working with the best food, drink and a brand you can be proud of?

We create memories that our guests never forget. This could be the next step for you into a Head Chef role. We actively encourage internal development and progression, with many of our senior chefs having been promoted from within. Onwards and upwards!
