Sous Chef - The Castle Inn - West Lulworth, Wareham

Up to £24,000 plus share of tips

In 1978 we shut out the world and made beer. At that time, no one was risking it all starting a traditional brewery, making simple, premium, easy-drinking ale. To do so was an act of defiance. Or madness. Fast forward to today and we’re holding fast to our values and heading off on another exciting journey.  This time we’re defying convention by significantly expanding and investing in our diverse and distinctive collection of pubs and inns, with everything from bustling high-street pubs, cosy country inns and beautiful boutique hotels across the south and west of England.

The Castle Inn is a traditional 16th Century thatched pub and inn. Situated near the beautiful Lulworth Cove & Durdle Door on the Jurassic coastline and surrounded by the Isle of Purbeck countryside, it is the perfect spot to start or finish a great walk along the South West coast path.

The Castle Inn is recently refurbished, opening just before Easter, complete with 12 beautifully restored boutique bedrooms, welcoming new bar and restaurant, but still with all the charm of a “home from home” local pub. The food focus is on quality, seasonal and local produce, daily specials and stunning seafood from Lulworth Cove.

As a Butcombe Sous Chef, you’ll be both a vital leader and key support to your head chef within your kitchen. When it comes down to it, you will be leading a team that are all about making memories by delivering great food and an unrivalled guest experience. It’s the best job in the business. You will:

  • Deliver some of the best food in the industry
  • Showcase your passion and enthusiasm for cooking fresh, locally sourced and quality ingredients
  • Adore all things food and drink and appreciate what a good plate of food looks and tastes like
  • Develop & nurture a fantastic team
  • Be a go-getter that is here to make an impact in the industry

You will demonstrate excellent communication skills, a great team motivator and leadership abilities. You will be passionate and ambitious; we want you to be our next Head Chef. Ideally you’ll have quality fresh food and managed house pub experience but this is not essential, we’re much more interested in you than what it says on your CV. You love your job and take great pride in your successes.

  • Competitive salary and benefits
  • 20% off food and drink in all Butcombe managed houses
  • Special team rates when you stay in a Butcombe Hotel or Inn
  • Unrivalled opportunity for progression and development within the group
  • Dedicated training and career progression
  • Sensible working hours within a friendly environment
  • Mentorship from experienced industry professionals
  • Butcombe Futures Academy – industry recognised and accredited training
  • Live in accommodation (subject to availability)
  • Inspiration Days and Local Supplier Visits
  • Generous performance-related incentive scheme

There’s never been a better time to join Butcombe Pub & Inns, so if this describes you, please apply now as we’d love for you to join us on our exciting journey.

Please make sure you tell us in your application exactly why you think you’d be a great member of the Butcombe family.
