Canterbury, United Kingdom ABode Canterbury Full time

An opportunity to join our family where work is a pleasure.


Location: ABode Canterbury is a stylish, four AA star 72-bedroom boutique hotel on Canterbury High Street, which houses our own restaurant brand, Brasserie ABode.

For the commuters, Canterbury East and West train stations are just a few minutes’ walk away.

SERVICE CHARGE-We pay our team service charge each month This service charge all goes into one pot, and 100% of that service charge is then shared amongst all the team at the hotel-every penny received is paid out to the team.

Service charge can be in the region of £115 a month (around £1375 per year) over and above base pay for a full time employee.

EXCITING ROLE, STARTING EARLY NEXT YEAR

Come and join our team as a Head Chef and let your passion and personality shine

Our culture is important to us, and we encourage everyone in our teams to show thoughtfulness towards each other and our guests.

As a Head Chef, you will be running a busy kitchen. You will be creating exciting and delicious dishes to be served to guests.

This role would suit someone who has worked in a similar environment previously, or a Sous Chef, looking to take the next step in their career.


Check out some of the key points about the role:

·           As a skilled chef, you’ll get to really put those knife skills to the test.

·           We want to keep everyone safe, so you’ll need to keep up to date with the latest allergen training.

·           Being one team, everyone in the kitchen is responsible for keeping it clean.

·           Nobody wants out of date food, so labelling your food is important.

·           As an experienced chef, we encourage you to share your knowledge with new, budding CDP’s, KP’s and Commis coming into the industry.

·           You’ll be responsible for managing the kitchen.

·           You’ll write the allergen matrix, to ensure that all our guests are kept safe.

·           We can’t run out of food, so it’s important to keep on top of ordering, via Procure Wizard.

 

Work/life, or as it should be called life/work balance is important to us all, so we will always try to be fair with our rotas.  We just ask that you can be flexible with us, so we can be flexible with you in return.

 

 To say thank you, we have many perks:

  • Competitive pay – We are proud that everyone who joins our group gets a competitive a rate of pay, irrespective of age, plus you get service charge and tips on top.
  • Treat yourself once in a while with lots of retail and hospitality perks through our Perkbox platform.
  • Excellent discounts across our family of hotels – you will be entitled to 25% off food & beverage in our hotels plus we offer an amazing staff rate of £25 B&B per person across the group & your friends and family get special rates too.
  • We understand it’s OK not to be OK, so we offer an externally run confidential helpline for any support you require about anything you might need as part of our Employee Assistance Programme.
  • We sustain you physically too, meals when you are on duty are free.
  • To be the best version of yourself, we encourage our teams to be curious. Everyone can learn and develop - our development pathways are unique to us and are the best in the business.
  • We provide lots of opportunity to progress and move up – we have made hundreds of internal promotions, including to General Manager level.
  • We like to say a special thank you for every year you are with us - our milestone awards include Champagne, afternoon tea, or dinner for you and someone special. When you reach the big milestones, you receive extra special gifts on top like longer hotel stays, extra days off and a unique gift especially chosen for you.
