Chef de Partie
The Bakers Arms, South Leicestershire
£32,000 per annum | 3 days off a week | Every Sunday night off - Start date 6/8/26
We're opening the doors on an exciting new restaurant project in South-east Leicestershire — a 30-seat, produce-led fine dining venue built on British ingredients, in-house curing and preserving, and a menu that changes with the seasons. This is a rare chance to get in on the ground floor of something new, working closely with the best ingredients the region has to offer.
We're looking for a Chef de Partie to run a section and help set the standard from day one.
What you'll be doing
- Running your own section with precision and consistency
- Working hands-on with whole-animal butchery, curing, and preserving
- Cooking a tight, seasonal set menu built around exceptional British produce
- Bringing energy and care to every plate that leaves the pass
The details
- £32,000 per annum
- Wednesday to Sunday service, 3 days off a week
- Every Sunday night off, guaranteed
- The chance to help shape a new restaurant from opening day
- A genuinely produce-first kitchen — real technique, real craft, no shortcuts
What we're looking for
- Solid section experience in a quality-focused kitchen
- A genuine interest in British ingredients, seasonality, and preservation techniques
- Someone who wants to build something, not just clock in
If you want to be part of something new and do the kind of cooking that actually matters, we'd love to hear from you.
