Chef

40 hours per week.

Our kitchen team bake all our cakes, pickle all of our pickles, jam all our jams and strive to make everything we can in-house with good quality seasonal ingredients.  We are looking for an individual who has experience in professional kitchens preparing and serving good quality food to order, who has a willingness to learn the other aspects of our kitchen such as working with sourdough pizzas and creating baked goods.

Our kitchen team is small, and every member is encouraged to be creative and have input in our regularly changing menu and selection of bakes. The hours we work are social for a chef position; two consecutive days off in a row (including a weekend day) and the latest we finish at weekends is 6pm. Good working environment with lots of benefits for climbers (obviously), and none of the nonsense that comes with typical kitchen work: no unpaid overtime, no missing breaks and good flexibility in regard to holiday.

ESSENTIAL SKILLS:

• At least 2 years of cooking experience in a professional kitchen: this role would suit an individual who is currently working at chef de partie/ senior chef de partie/ Junior Sous chef level.
• Teamwork and the ability to remain calm during busy periods.
• Basic understanding of food hygiene COSHH and HACCP principles.

DESIRABLE SKILLS:

• Technical baking skills and ability to produce baked goods from recipes (training will be provided).
• Experience working with pizza dough or sourdough bread (training will be provided).
• Ability to work collaboratively with other team members to design menus and create high quality seasonal specials.
• Experience taking responsibility for daily kitchen functions: completing paperwork, writing detailed prep lists, communicating issues with other team members, ordering stock and minimising wastage, maintaining a clean and hygienic work environment.

If you are passionate about creating great food with ingredients from local suppliers in a relaxed environment please send your CV to: kitchen@theboardroomclimbing.com
