We are looking for experienced Chefs de Partie to join a busy, well-established hospitality business in the Bowness-on-Windermere area.

- Calm, positive and professional under pressure
- Comfortable following kitchen standards and procedures

- Clear expectations from day one
- Opportunity to develop within the business
