Head Chef 

About us: We’re looking for a Head Chef for our food-famous pub - The White Horse in Hascombe, near Godalming.    We are a bustling community village pub that has a reputation for fantastic food and stunning service that extends well beyond the borders of the village.   Our food is all about serving elevated seasonal dishes that showcase locally sourced produce, inspired by our countryside – we even have our own dry ager for beef! 

We’re looking for a Head Chef to put their stamp on the menu by writing recipes and creating dishes that will continue to improve our offer.   Aside from writing recipes and ensuring the delivery of delectable dishes, you’ll be looking after health and safety, developing your team and looking after all aspects of kitchen management.   If you’re all about  elevated countryside classics, hearty dishes and showcasing seasonality in a premium pub environment then apply now!

Come join our team in our journey to make the White Horse the go to pub in Surrey! We’ve got some exciting plans to bring the White Horse back to life and are looking for hard-working and friendly people to join our team and come on the journey with us. Anyone with a passion for hospitality and customer service will find a place here amongst our fantastic team.
This 16th-century pub located in Hascombe in the stunning Surrey Hills boasts fresh, British seasonal food accompanied by a great range of local beers and an amazing wine list. Serving walking groups, locals, families and people traveling to see the hills there is never a dull moment in Hascombe. We can’t wait to welcome you for a drink with pals, a business lunch, or dinner with friends and family.
