What it's like to work here

Reporting to the Head Chef, you'll be based at Calke Abbey (Derby, DE73 7JF), one of the East Midlands’ top 10 visitor attractions. The newly refurbished restaurant serves local and seasonal produce, including organically reared meat from the estate. As well as the house, Calke is popular with visitors looking to explore the gardens, pleasure grounds, stableyards, and the 600+ acre estate including an ancient deer park, wetland and nature reserve. Our popular commercial spaces such as the restaurant, café, pop-up refreshments and shop help to make much of Calke’s extensive conservation work possible.

What you'll be doing

As a Cook, your focus will be in the kitchen, helping to prepare and present delicious food from scratch using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Your food will be served directly to visitors. Using the framework of our ‘National Trust Cookbook’, you’ll prepare, measure and mix ingredients. You’ll help with deliveries and with keeping the kitchen clean, to be compliant with health and safety legislation and to make sure that service runs smoothly. We’ll give you an induction that fits the job, and training in allergens and food safety, plus any mentoring needed to help you in your role. You can sign up for further professional training and development if you wish.  Please also read the full role profile, attached to this advert.
