Chef de Partie (CDP)
£13.50–£14.50 per hour (equivalent to £30,900–£33,200 per year) + share of card tips

About us
We are looking for an enthusiastic Chef de Partie to join our kitchen team. This role is perfect for a chef who wants to develop their skills, work with fresh seasonal food, and progress towards Sous Chef in the future.

The newest addition to Craft Locals currently undergoing extensive renovations ready to open March 2026. Located in the outskirts of Rickmansworth, just a short walk from the Aquadrome and Bishop's Wood Country Park, The Rose & Crown is a welcoming, country pub with deep local roots and a bright new chapter ahead. Perfectly placed for locals, walkers and visitors alike, it’s a pub designed for relaxed pints, great food and good company.

Inside, you’ll find a proper pub atmosphere, with a carefully curated range of real ales and thoughtfully chosen wines, supported by fresh, seasonal food and excellent, friendly service. The Rose & Crown is a place where traditional pub values meet modern standards of hospitality.

Our kitchen delivers fresh, seasonal menus built around classic pub favourites, using quality ingredients and contemporary touches. On Sundays, we’re all about exceptional roasts, with perfectly cooked meats, crisp unlimited roast potatoes, seasonal veg and rich gravies worth coming back for.

With outdoor seating for warmer days, a strong sense of community and a passion for great hospitality, The Rose & Crown is a pub where locals return time and again — a place to eat well, drink better and feel at home. 

This is your chance to join a growing independent pub group and be part of a supportive team in a busy, food-led environment.


What’s in it for you

  • Pay: £13.50–£14.50/hr (equivalent to £30,900–£33,200/year)

  • Tips: Share of card tips

  • Perks: 50% off food & 20% off drinks across the group, 28 days holiday, staff discount, team socials

  • Training: Supplier sessions, brewery visits, regular menu development opportunities

  • Progression: Clear development pathway to Sous Chef


What you’ll be doing

  • Running your own section with consistency and pride

  • Preparing fresh, seasonal dishes to spec and high standards

  • Working closely with the Sous and Head Chef on new dishes and specials

  • Keeping the kitchen clean, safe and compliant at all times

  • Supporting junior chefs and learning from senior team members

  • Contributing ideas for menus and improving processes


What we’re looking for

  • Experience as a CDP in a fresh-food kitchen (or strong Commis ready to step up)

  • Organised and reliable with great attention to detail

  • Passionate about fresh ingredients and seasonal cooking

  • A team player with a positive attitude

  • Knowledge of HACCP and food safety standards

  • Ambitious to progress towards more senior chef roles


This is your chance to grow your skills, take on responsibility, and progress your career with a food-led independent pub group.

Apply today and join the team.

About Us
Craft Locals is a growing group of people-focused pubs, dedicated to delivering exceptional food, well-kept cask ale, and memorable guest experiences. We believe great pubs start with great teams, and we invest in our people — giving them the support, training, and tools they need to shine.

We’ve built systems that make running a pub straightforward and compliant, so our teams can focus on what really matters: welcoming guests and delivering an outstanding experience. From reservations to stock, scheduling to events, we use a suite of best-in-class tools — including AllGravy, MarketMan, Harri, S4Labour, Lightspeed, Trail, FoodAlert and SevenRooms — to simplify operations and keep everything running smoothly.

At Craft Locals, we’re proud to combine a love of people, food, and drink with smart systems and strong support — creating pubs that teams enjoy working in and guests love visiting.
