Full job description

We are looking for a Head Chef who will be responsible for the day-to-day leadership and operation of The Lambing Shed Café kitchen. Reporting to the Head of Food / Executive Chef, the role ensures consistently high standards of food quality, service, hygiene and team performance.

An Exciting Time to Join Us

The Lambing Shed is a thriving, independent farm shop café with a reputation for serving exceptional fresh food in a welcoming setting.

This unique farm-to-fork approach allows our chefs to work with outstanding produce and create dishes that celebrate the very best of local, seasonal ingredients.

With significant investment planned for next year, we will be doubling the size of our restaurant, creating an exciting opportunity for an ambitious Head Chef to help shape the future of our food offering. Working alongside our Head of Food / Executive Chef, you'll play a key role in developing the kitchen, growing the team and maintaining the exceptional standards that our customers have come to expect.
