Head Chef- Main Kitchen

2 weeks ago

South West London, London, United Kingdom Harrods Ltd Full time

Our Chefs are an integral part of our Production Kitchen. They ensure that our world-class food halls and deli counters are stocked with mesmerizing products ready for our customers to take away and serve at home, each and every day.

We are now looking for a Head Chef to lead this award-winning kitchen, based in store in Knightsbridge.

About the Role

As the Head Chef, you'll be responsible for the day to day operations of your brigade to ensure the highest quality of product is being produced. By working closely with our Food Buying and Retail Managers, you'll take the lead with the creative culinary vision of the Production Kitchen to develop new and exciting products for our Food Halls and Food to Order service.

You'll also be responsible for effective storage, ordering food stock and planning production levels to minimise wastage and ensure that stock checks are completed in a timely manner. By adhering to all Health & Safety regulations and procedures, you'll set a high standard of food safety in the daily operations.

About You

You'll be an experienced Head Chef with a strong background in hospitality, ideally within high-volume catering or production environments. This role is central to our new product development, so you should bring a passion for crafting innovative recipes and retail-ready products, working cross functionally with our other teams to ensure each product can be scaled efficiently for manufacturing.

Your expertise will help drive the culinary vision, balancing creativity with practicality to deliver exceptional quality at scale

Additionally, you'll have great time-management skills, experienced working with large kitchen teams and a strong customer focus when dealing with both internal and external parties. You'll have exceptional communication and interpersonal skills as you will be interacting with other business areas in your day to day. You will also display great attention to detail, which will be evident through paperwork completed, organisation of department and sufficient stock levels. Having good PC literacy is a must (Word, Excel and preferably SAP).

About Us

As the world's leading luxury retail emporium, we make the impossible possible, and our hospitality offer is evolving and expanding rapidly across our stores. We are a welcoming and close-knit family who are passionate about food and beverage and aim to craft dining experiences that are the highlight of our customers' visits.

Our Promise to You

Help us make the impossible possible for our customers and we'll do something remarkable for you. As well as offering a friendly environment to inspire your best work, we provide abundant opportunities and support to build an exceptional career across the varied specialisms of our business.

In return for your hard work as Head Chef, you'll learn every aspect of working in a busy, premier kitchen and will receive some great benefits including:

  • Competitive annual salary plus annual KPI bonus
  • Set contracted hours (45 per week)
  • Day shifts only - 7am until 5pm
  • 33 days' annual leave + birthday off (including Bank holidays)
  • Up to 33% Harrods discount
  • Generous company pension scheme and much more


Uniquely You

Whilst our job adverts outline the ideal qualities, skills, and prior experience for the role, we believe in the potential for growth and value individual strengths. If you can demonstrate the majority of skills and strong experience to thrive in this role, we would encourage you to apply.

At Harrods we believe the personality and authenticity of our people sets us apart. We celebrate and invite applications from all cultures, backgrounds, tastes, and experiences and are proud of our culture where people from all walks of life can grow and thrive. What makes you unique makes us exceptional.
