Head Chef / From 35k P/A plus a generous TRONC share. 

About us:

We’re looking for a Head Chef at the Cambridge Brew House.  We are looking for someone to lead the kitchen and be a key part of creating a new food offer within the pub – we want someone who can write some fantastic recipes to keep our customers happy, as well as look after all aspects of Kitchen Health and Safety and help to develop our team.   Beer is a key part of what we do – so a couple of creative dishes featuring beer would be a crowd pleaser!   We have a solid kitchen team that is close to full strength, and the business includes a number of areas that can be booked for private hire, so there are other opportunities to develop the offer and work with Adam the GM to ensure we’re offering quality food to all of our guests.

The Cambridge Brew House is the perfect pub in Cambridge to meet friends, enjoy fine beers, kick back and watch the game whilst sampling a tempting selection of delicious fresh food.

Relax in the bar while Vanesa is hard at work perfecting our own range of ales from the on-site micro-brewery, or sample some local and international craft beers from our ever changing range. We like to call it the complete pub!

What we offer our Head Chefs:

  • Head Chefs get to have full autonomy to create your own menus and specials
  • Access to our Apprenticeship Scheme and Development Programmes
  • Access to regular culinary masterclasses covering topics such as Game, Butchery and Shellfish
  • Access to inspirational food trips with our top quality suppliers
  • Regular Chef Forums with other Head Chefs to inspire and develop
  • Free meals
  • 20% discount in all Young’s pubs and hotels
  • Share save Scheme
  • Enhanced Company Pension Scheme
  • 28 Days Holiday per year

What we look for in a Head Chef:

This role requires someone that can inspire a team, to bring out the potential and lead by example whilst being able to develop, cost and produce fresh seasonal menus for the variety of revenue streams within the business.

  • Have experience championing excellent service through quality food either as a Head Chef or in the position of Sous Chef
  • Demonstrate a passion for leading and developing a team
  • Be an active hands-on team player with excellent communication skills
  • Be responsible and able to manage the kitchen staff rota, training and all health and safety effectively at all times
  • Be able to demonstrate your creativity and ability to design and deliver new dishes for our menus and daily specials
  • Demonstrate great planning and organisational skills, necessary to maintain effective controls with regard to both GP and labour
  • Have a pro-active approach to driving sales and delivering growth, through engagement with both kitchen and front of house teams
