We’re a multi-award-winning country pub, restaurant and events venue, and at The Chester Fields we do things a little differently.
We’re looking for a Sous Chef who’s passionate about fresh, local produce, creativity and progression — someone who wants to grow as part of a supportive, close-knit team. You’ll be working alongside chefs who genuinely care about what they do, in an environment that values ideas, energy and doing things properly (without the usual industry clichés).
We’re proud of our strong team culture and high staff retention, offering a good work-life balance and a friendly, positive place to work. This role is perfect for a career-minded chef ready to step up and be recognised for their contribution, with genuine opportunities to develop and progress within the business.
You’ll need to stay calm under pressure, bring a great attitude and enjoy the pace of a busy kitchen. Experience in a fresh-food, high-volume kitchen is preferred.
We’re located just outside Chester, so your own transport is essential.

- Competitive salary
- Share of Tronc
- Staff food on shift
- Staff discount when dining off duty
- On-site staff parking
- Good work-life balance
- A supportive and friendly team

If you’re passionate about food, enjoy working as part of a strong team and are ready to take the next step in your career, we’d love to hear from you.
Serious applicants only, please.
