Head Chef

The Shakespeare

Employment type: Full Time
Contract: Permanent
Salary: to be discussed at venue

Head Chef – Lead Our Kitchen with Britain’s Oldest Brewer!

At Shepherd Neame, we know that great food is at the heart of a memorable experience. As a Head Chef, you’ll take full responsibility for the kitchen, leading your team to deliver exceptional quality and consistency. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced chef with strong leadership skills and a passion for creating outstanding dishes.

Where You’ll Be Working

Set in the heart of Canterbury, the Shakespeare is located in a quaint cobbled street in the centre of the city. With the pub close to Canterbury Cathedral it’s a great place to seek out dinner and drinks after a day on the tourist trail. The adjoining wine bar opens onto the Buttermarket square opposite the Cathedral’s main entrance. You can enjoy traditional British classics, Kentish gourmet burgers and artisanal sharing boards, alongside ales and lagers brewed just 10 miles away by Shepherd Neame in Faversham.

What You’ll Do

Oversee all aspects of kitchen operations, from menu planning to service delivery.
Lead, motivate, and develop the kitchen team to achieve high standards.
Ensure all dishes are prepared and presented to company specifications.
Manage stock control, ordering, and cost efficiency.
Maintain strict hygiene, safety, and compliance standards.
Drive innovation through menu development and seasonal specials.
Work closely with the General Manager to deliver an exceptional guest experience.

What’s In It For You?

Competitive hourly pay plus a share of tips
Early wage withdrawal scheme
25% discount on food and drink at Shepherd Neame Managed Houses
25% discount on overnight stays at Managed House Hotels
Up to 40% off select purchases from our Visitor Centre Shop in Faversham
Exclusive discounts via Sheps Hut on hundreds of high street brands
Access to a Workplace Mental Health Platform
Company pension plan
Career development opportunities across our pubs, Brewery, and Support Office
Flexible working hours to suit your lifestyle

What You’ll Need

We’re looking for behaviours that make a great Head Chef:

Working Together – you inspire confidence, guide others positively and enjoy working collaboratively and supporting colleagues.
Pride and Passion – you care about quality, presentation and ensure consistency and high standards.
Sheps Spirit – you bring enthusiasm and a passion for food.
Authenticity – you stay calm and proactive when things get busy.

Why Shepherd Neame?

Our culture is built on Sheps Spirit, Working Together, Pride and Passion, and Authenticity—values that have guided us for over 300 years. When you join us, you become part of a team that celebrates tradition while shaping the future.

Ready to bring your personality and passion to the kitchen?

Apply today and become part of our story!
