Job Description:

Get a taste for our Kitchen… taking responsibility for the delivery of a high standard of food to our guests.

You will have the opportunity to move around all sections of the kitchen in this role.

Chef de Parties must be passionate about food and delivering amazing hospitality to our guests.

Hotel Description:

Step into the welcoming open-air courtyard at the heart of our Brighton hotel, with its retractable roof and sculptures for a wonderfully lazy al fresco lunch. Enjoy an aperitif or unwind with a nightcap in the deep sofas of the ornate Bubble Lounge Bar. Dine in the candle-lit splendour of our trademark Bistro, serving French classics with a distinctly British twist. Explore our extensive wine and Champagne list: with over 40 to choose from, there's always a fizz to match your mood. Head underground to the vaulted Pub du Vin and join the locals for great ales and good honest grub - done du Vin-style, of course. Keep things private (for work or play) in one of four stunning and unique function rooms. Pick up the pace in our fitness club, or wind down in the spa with a sauna, steam or indulgent treatment, then hit the hay in one of 66 bedrooms and suites to discover comfy custom made beds, crisp white Egyptian bed linen, huge fluffy towels, monsoon-like showers and oversized scroll -top baths. As a local might say, it's 'bostin'.
