Head Chef – Full Time

? The Dog & Fox

Are you a natural leader with a calm head during a Saturday night rush? Can you cost a menu, run a tight GP, and still plate food you’re proud to put your name to? If so, we’d love to meet you.

We’re on the hunt for a Head Chef to lead the kitchen at The Dog & Fox — someone who can inspire a team, keep standards high, and still enjoy the buzz of a busy service.

You’ll be reporting directly to Holly, our Executive Chef, who sets the culinary direction across the business. Holly brings the big-picture food vision — you’ll bring it to life day to day in your kitchen.


What You’ll Be Doing
  • Leading from the front (and occasionally from the pass when things get lively)

  • Delivering fresh, seasonal menus with strong margins

  • Training, mentoring and building a solid, happy brigade

  • Managing stock, suppliers and keeping waste tight

  • Owning kitchen compliance and food safety

  • Keeping service smooth, standards high, and stress levels sensible


What We’re Looking For
  • Experience as a Head Chef or strong Senior Sous ready to step up

  • Solid understanding of GP, labour control and kitchen performance

  • Someone organised, reliable and calm under pressure

  • A team builder — not a shouter

  • A genuine love for great pub food done properly


What You’ll Get
  • Competitive salary (depending on experience)

  • Bonus structure linked to performance

  • Creative input on menus and specials

  • Staff discount

  • Support from Holly and the wider leadership team

  • A kitchen you can genuinely make your own

If you’re ready to take ownership of a busy, food-led kitchen and work alongside a supportive Executive Chef who values standards and teamwork, we’d love to hear from you.

Send us your CV and a short note about why you’re the right fit.
