Head Chef 

About us:

The Fentiman Arms is a buzzy local pub, ideally positioned between Oval, Vauxhall and Kennington tube stations, close enough to the Oval Cricket Ground that you can just hear the roar of cricket fans on match days.
The Fentiman Arms is a warm, homely pub with superb quality British food and friendly faces aplenty. Our back doors open up into a large garden, adorned with festoon lights! With its very own bar and burger shack, it makes it one of the best pub gardens in the area!

The Fentiman Arm's is a great pub in a quiet residential street. Known for our fantastic garden and great atmosphere. We are a pub that does great food, a fab Sunday Roast and our Burger Shack is always popular. 

We are looking for a Head Chef who has experience with big volume and someone who is creative and can grab hold of the great reputation and take it to the next level. 

What we offer our Head Chefs:

  • Head Chefs get to have full autonomy to create your own menus and specials
  • Access to our Apprenticeship Scheme and Development Programmes
  • Access to regular culinary masterclasses covering topics such as Game, Butchery and Shellfish
  • Access to inspirational food trips with our top quality suppliers
  • Regular Chef Forums with other Head Chefs to inspire and develop
  • Free meals
  • 20% discount in all Young’s pubs and hotels
  • Share save Scheme
  • Enhanced Company Pension Scheme
  • 28 Days Holiday per year

What we look for in a Head Chef:

This role requires someone that can inspire a team, to bring out the potential and lead by example whilst being able to develop, cost and produce fresh seasonal menus for the variety of revenue streams within the business.

  • Have experience championing excellent service through quality food either as a Head Chef or in the position of Sous Chef
  • Demonstrate a passion for leading and developing a team
  • Be an active hands-on team player with excellent communication skills
  • Be responsible and able to manage the kitchen staff rota, training and all health and safety effectively at all times
  • Be able to demonstrate your creativity and ability to design and deliver new dishes for our menus and daily specials
  • Demonstrate great planning and organisational skills, necessary to maintain effective controls with regard to both GP and labour
  • Have a pro-active approach to driving sales and delivering growth, through engagement with both kitchen and front of house teams



Our food is classic British with some fun creative dishes added in to the mix. We are a very popular venue within the area for parties and functions so having a tasty food offer is a must. 

With Oval cricket ground 5 minutes away we do get very busy for these special days when the staduim has 22000 people visiting the area.
