I am now back from annual leave and it was nice to have some time off to finish the Christmas shopping and organise the house before the mayhem starts next week. We finally got the Christmas Tree up as well, albeit a week later than we usually would. Johanna, Jessica and I also went for some tapas at a local bistro on Saturday night which was nice to finish my week off. It’s nice to come back to work with a fresh mind ready to start the 2nd last full week of 2019!
We have just introduced a work phone for the use of social media, so we are now officially using Instagram and Twitter. We will be posting job vacancies and any other updates through this network so please give us a follow!
We are having our Christmas night out this Friday at the Famous Star Hotel here in Moffat and will be joining those celebrating ‘Frantic Friday’. There has been lots of events throughout Moffat on over the last few weekends and it is nice to see Moffat so busy especially at this time of year. Michael was also in Auchencairn over the weekend at the real ale festival which looked to be a success.
Over this week we are aiming to get some permanent placements as well as some relief jobs confirmed in the lead up to Christmas. The New Year is a great time to be looking for a new job and a great way to start off 2020. We are all in the office this week so if you haven’t already done so then please give us a call on 01683 222830 or send your CV through to recruitment@chefsinscotland.co.uk
