Junior Sous Chef

We are an award-winning business who pride ourselves in giving our chefs the freedom to create premium, seasonal menus that ‘wow’ our customers within an industry leading environment.  We run friendly, welcoming, and positive kitchens with high standards always striving to be the best we can be.

Dating back to the 16th century, The Horse & Groom is a grade II-listed pub and inn in the heart of Charlton, near Malmesbury.

Fronted by a tree-sheltered lawn and surrounded by its own paddock, inside the pub you’ll find original flagstone floors and an open log fire, with award-winning Butcombe beer and ale behind the bar, and delicious seasonal dishes and traditional pub classics on the menu.

With five boutique bedrooms and a large beer garden for al fresco drinking and dining, The Horse & Groom offers the perfect rural escape.

What’s in it for you?

• The chance to work for an award-winning business.  We have won the Best Food offer (2019 & 2020) and Best Managed Pub Company (2021) at The UK Publican Awards. You will be cooking some of the best and most innovative pub food in the industry.
• A competitive salary plus an equal share of great tips.
• The opportunity to work for a diverse company and gain experience in a range of kitchens and menus.  We take a collaborative approach to menu development, giving you autonomy over dishes in your kitchen.

• A business who cares about you.  We are ambassadors for the Burnt Chef Project fighting the stigma of mental health and working with them to train and support our teams.   We also offer an Employee Assistance Program that is there 24/7 to provide you with support. 
• You will work closely with some of the best locally sourced ingredients; learning and executing technical skills that reflect our premium food menus.
• We will back with you the tools you need to do a great job and have invested significantly in our kitchens.

·       Staff parties, events, training courses, great supplier and staff discounts (including 75% off food on shift), and much more!
