We're about much more than hospitality! We're striving to make life better for people – whether they are team, guests or community, through our everyday actions and decisions. Our team care for others, bring their best and help us move forward, whatever job they do.
With 10 venues across Scotland, Manorview Hotels is growing — and we're looking for passionate chefs at every level to join our kitchen teams. Whether you're an experienced Head Chef ready to lead, or a Commis Chef just starting out, we have a role and a career path for you.
The Roles
You'll take full ownership of the kitchen — leading the team, managing food cost and quality, driving menu development, and setting the standard for everything that leaves the pass. This is a role for an experienced leader who wants autonomy, accountability and the backing of a company invested in your success.
Right-hand support to the Head Chef, running the kitchen day-to-day, coaching junior chefs, and making sure every dish hits the mark. A great next step for someone ready to grow into a Head Chef role.
Take charge of your own section, delivering consistently high standards under pressure, while learning from senior chefs and building the skills to progress further.
Start your culinary career the right way. You'll learn the fundamentals across sections, work alongside experienced chefs, and be supported through structured training and development.
Love variety? Move between our venues covering shifts as needed, gaining broad experience across different kitchens, menus and teams — ideal if you want flexibility without compromising on great training and support.
We pay a fair wage – with our hourly pay being higher than the Government rates, at a minimum. Your earnings will be further enhanced by our 10% service charges and other tips that guests leave – with 100% of tips being retained by the team.
We make life better for our team by:
- Offering great perks and benefits to be enjoyed by you and your family!
- Sharing our profits with you after 1 year of service
- Giving you free meals, soft drinks and hot drinks on shift
- Listening to our team via surveys and feedback sessions
- Offering free wellbeing services and resources, for help whenever you need it
- Creating great learning and development opportunities to support your career
Skill and experience are necessary to do this job, but more than anything else, we want someone who shares our vision of a hospitality industry that is better and sees themselves being part of the team who can make this happen!
- A genuine passion for food and hospitality
- A team player who brings energy, care and pride to their work
- Relevant experience for your level (or a willingness to learn, for Commis roles)
- Flexibility and a positive attitude — no two days in our kitchens are the same
If you want to be part of a team that genuinely cares — about food, about people, and about doing things the right way — we'd love to hear from you.
