A bit about you

You are food obsessed. You love fine dining as much as you love a good burger- and take pride in cooking either perfectly. You understand seasonality and sustainability in the kitchen. You understand what British produce is all about, and love to present the most beautiful plates around.

You understand how the kitchen works, from bottom to top. And most of all- you love your team- you know how to train, motivate and lead by example. You are hands on and love spending your time in the kitchen, not in front of a computer.

Your ambition is to work for a company that understands you- and trusts your instincts when it comes to food. You’ve been looking for this role for ages and guess what, we’ve been looking for you!

At GuestHouse We say we’re a family of happy hotels, full of wonder, in Britain’s most intriguing cities because we mean it. We’re literally a family, three brothers in fact – Tristan, James and Tom – creating the kind of hotels our families and friends want to stay in. Luxury, but not stuffy. Different, but not show off. And above all, happy. We know that to make guests happy we need you, our teams, to be happy at work, empowered to make decisions, and genuinely feel like part of the family, not just someone doing a job.
