Commis Chef

Commis Chef – £24,024 per annum – 4 Red Star 2 AA Rosette, Chilston Park Hotel – Live in available at £58.52 per week – Kent

Are you considering a career as a Chef? Good choice – Commis Chefs are always in high demand and your friends and family will love your new skills!  Many of our Hand Picked Chefs have travelled the world or have cooked for the great and the good. They wouldn’t change their career as a Chef for anything.

This isn’t just about taking food out of a freezer and popping it in the oven or deep fat fryer – you will be trained to transform fresh ingredients into high quality food for our hotel and fine dining restaurant. These are skills for life.

As a Commis Chef you’ll enjoy working as part of a team where no day is the same. The candidate we’re looking for will be hungry to learn and able to work within strict food hygiene restrictions. Does this sounds like something you would enjoy?


What’s in it for you:

• A competitive salary - all our kitchen team members are paid hourly with any overtime paid
• A share of service charge – 100% of which is split between the team
• Live in accommodation charged at just £58.52 per week all-inclusive of meals and bills
• The opportunity to live and work in a historic property in a stunning location - although due to our location you will need to either live in or have your own transport, as public transport is not an option
• Delicious meals on duty
• 28 days holiday rising to 33 days with service – we think it’s fair to value loyalty.
• £30 staff stays with Hand Picked Hotels per room Bed & Breakfast PLUS 25% discount of all food & drink. Yes, it’s as good as it sounds!
• Annual loyalty awards (like afternoon teas and overnight stays)
• Free parking on site
• Online retail discount platform offering thousands of savings with high street retailers and restaurants as well as a health and well-being platform
