OUR HOTEL
Opening soon, Courtyard by Marriott Sheffield is a brand-new 150-bedroom hotel perfectly located between Sheffield and Rotherham.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A HEAD CHEF AT OUR HOTEL

What you'll be doing..

  • Be a driving force in the launch of our all-day Bistro & Bar — helping shape a fresh, modern food offering that puts us on the local dining map

  • Lead, inspire and develop a brand-new kitchen team, fostering a culture of excellence, creativity, and collaboration from day one

  • Proven ability to lead and inspire a team — especially during the exciting and challenging opening phase

  • Strong understanding of food costings, menu engineering, stock control, and kitchen compliance

  • Passion for creating dishes that blend modern style with broad appeal — ideally with experience in a hotel or all-day dining concept

  • Confident, proactive, and positive — someone who thrives under pressure and brings out the best in others

  • Ability to work flexibly including evenings, weekends, and key seasonal periods

  • A strong eye for detail and pride in presentation, quality, and consistency

  • A desire to be part of something special — this is more than just a job; it’s a chance to help build a new hotel’s reputation from the ground up
