This isn't just a job. It's a first chapter.
Whether you are a Senior Sous Chef ready to make your move or an experienced Head Chef looking for something to really invest yourself in, this could be the opportunity you have been waiting for.
Layton's is a beautiful, intimate restaurant in the Test Valley & we are in the early & exciting stages of growing something really special. We need someone who wants to be part of that from the ground up.
What you will bring:
A genuine love of food & hospitality. The drive to lead a kitchen & deliver exceptional food consistently. The ambition to grow alongside a business that will grow with you. A team mentality & a willingness to roll your sleeves up.
What this role looks like:
Working closely alongside our Executive Chef, you will be responsible for leading the kitchen, executing & maintaining our menu to the highest standards, overseeing the kitchen team & ensuring full food hygiene compliance at all times.
What we offer:
- £27,500 - £40,000 salary depending on experience, reviewed at six months
- A genuine opportunity to grow your salary as the business grows
- GP bonus scheme for hitting targets, because when Layton's wins, you win
- The chance to build your reputation in a stunning Hampshire setting alongside an experienced Executive Chef
What we are looking for:
We will be honest, this role is not for someone who is purely focused on what they can take out of the business. It is for someone who understands that the early stages of a restaurant take heart, commitment & a genuine love of what you do.
If you are the kind of chef who lights up when they talk about food, who takes pride in their kitchen & who wants to be part of something truly special, we would love to hear from you.
We can't wait to meet you.
