Full job description

Where fresh local produce, creativity, and countryside charm come together - and no two days (or dishes) are the same!

Oldmeldrum, Aberdeenshire
Competitive Salary + Tips
~40 Hours per Week
Permanent Contract

Barra Castle Farmshop is looking for a talented Head Chef to lead the kitchen in our busy and growing café, set in the beautiful Aberdeenshire countryside near Oldmeldrum.

We’re a kitchen that prides itself on proper food, made with great ingredients, and a bit of personality on the plate - not the same dishes you’ll find everywhere else. Our aim is simple: food that customers come back for, talk about, and remember.

This is a rare opportunity for a chef who wants to work with fresh, seasonal produce in a growing business, while enjoying a more balanced lifestyle than many traditional hospitality roles.

It’s equally suited to an experienced Head Chef looking for a fresh challenge, or a strong Sous Chef / Senior Chef ready to step up into their first kitchen leadership role, with real scope to shape the future of the food here.

Why Join Us?

Competitive salary + tips
More balanced working pattern than many traditional kitchens
Work with fresh, local, seasonal ingredients
Freedom to develop menus and daily specials
Opportunity to cater for events and private functions
A supportive, friendly team
Staff meals
Stunning rural location
Potential to grow with an ambitious business
Chance to put your stamp on a developing food offering

The Role

You’ll take full ownership of the kitchen day-to-day, leading service and ensuring consistently high standards across every dish.

You’ll be expected to cook food that is both well-executed and a little bit different - the kind of dishes that get people talking.

Key Responsibilities

Lead daily kitchen service
Create and develop seasonal menus and specials
Maintain food safety, hygiene, and compliance standards
Manage stock control, ordering, and supplier relationships
Train, support, and motivate junior team members
Manage GP, margins, and minimise waste
Maintain consistency, quality, and presentation standards

About You

We’re looking for someone who:

Has strong chef leadership experience
Is currently a Head Chef, or a Sous Chef ready to step up
Can handle a busy service without losing focus or standards
Cares about flavour, presentation, and fresh ingredients
Is calm, organised, and hands-on in the kitchen
Leads by example and treats the team with respect
Can adapt when things change (and they sometimes will)
Wants a better work-life balance without compromising on quality

Ideal Background

Experience in a café, restaurant, bistro, hotel or gastro pub is all welcome.

Location

Barra Castle Farmshop, Oldmeldrum, Aberdeenshire, AB51 0BB

Own transport is necessary due to rural location.

Apply Now

If you’re hungry for a new challenge, and want to be part of a kitchen that values fresh food, creativity, and good people…

Send your CV and a short introduction telling us why this role is right for you.

Benefits:

Employee discount
On-site parking

Application question(s):

Will you be able to commute to AB51 0BB

Experience:

Chef: 2 years (required)

Work Location: In person
