Job description:

Cornhill Castle has 13 bedroom and 7 lodges, situated in Bigger 1 hour from Edinburgh and 20 minutes from Lanark.

As our Head Chef, you are:

- A pivotal part of our leadership team, working with other Heads of Departments and the General Manager to deliver great hospitality and experiences to our Guests and Team.

- Passionate about your craft and all aspects of Kitchen Management and Food experiences. With overall responsibility for all aspects of the day-to-day Kitchen operation and team, you work with your team to deliver a high quality and innovative standard of menu across the restaurant, functions and other food outlets whilst maintaining a high level of profitability. You are financially astute and have built key relationships with suppliers ensuring the very best produce and service is achieved.

- Always leading from the front, guiding and developing your team to deliver consistent standards of cleanliness, tidiness and food service as well as an engaged and motivated team.

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!

Do you love working in hospitality, but wish it was even better? Yea, us too!

That’s why we are striving every day to make hospitality better for everyone; our team, customers, communities, charities and partners. But it takes a team to make an impact, and we want the best of the best people to join us on this mission.

We’ve already begun the journey, and have started to make hospitality better for our team by;

Paying every person the real living wage at a minimum, regardless of age or role.
Sharing 10% of our net profits with team who have been with us 12+ months, and basing it on average hours, not pay.
Removing zero-hours contracts (people now only get one if they request it).
Ensuring there’s a Mental Health First Aider in every venue.
Facilitating team surveys to get feedback/opinions before we make key decisions.
Ensuring that our Team Member of the Month is voted for by the team and not managers.
Giving our team a paid day off to volunteer or fundraise for a charity.
It’s just the beginning! But a business is only as strong as its people, so we need more amazing, passionate, determined people to help us create real change in our organisation (and industry). In exchange, we’re committed to giving you the support, knowledge, development and opportunities you need to be give your very best.
