Head Chef – Siren Cheltenham Bar (New Opening)

Siren City Bars, Cheltenham (The Brewery Quarter)

About Us

Siren Craft Brew has been at the forefront of the UK craft beer movement since 2013, consistently ranked among the world’s top 100 breweries on RateBeer. We are bold, flavourful and uncompromising, and that spirit runs through everything we do, including our bars and pubs.

Siren City Bars is our growing hospitality arm, operating a collection of distinctive venues that share our passion for great beer, exceptional hospitality and genuine community. We are now bringing that same energy to Cheltenham, and we’re looking for an exceptional Head Chef to be a major part of the opening of the venue.

The Role

As Head Chef, you will take full ownership of the kitchen at our brand-new Cheltenham venue, its team, its food and its commercial performance. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, craft-led environment and knows how to build a kitchen team and maintain high standards.

You will lead on site menu development and food quality while hitting your GP and cost targets, working closely with the General Manager to deliver a brilliant guest experience from day one.

· Work closely with the General Manager to monitor staff hours and adhere to the wage budget

Compliance and Maintenance

· Ensure government regulations on allergen, health and safety management (EHO standard) are adhered to
· Oversee the maintenance of kitchen equipment and organise repairs when needed
· Complete weekly walkarounds with the General Manager, documenting and actioning work required, and sharing this with Head Office

Skills and Experience Required

· Proven experience as a Head Chef, in a high-volume kitchen
· Strong commercial acumen with a track record of hitting GP and margin targets
· Excellent people manager, you lead by example and bring the best out of those around you
· Passion for great food and craft beer (you don’t need to be a brewer, but you do need to care)
· Confident with stock management, kitchen administration and supplier relationships
· Experience leading a kitchen team in a fast-paced environment
· A genuine commitment to delivering an excellent guest experience
· Willing to be contactable outside usual work hours in the event of an emergency

Benefits

· Discounts across all Siren venues
· 28 days paid holiday
· Genuine career development within a growing hospitality group
· Opportunity to shape a brand new kitchen and menu from the ground up
