Lymington, United Kingdom Liberation Group Full time

Join Our Team as a Sous Chef

The Mayflower is a traditional pub with beautiful bedrooms, located in the picturesque harbour town of Lymington in the New Forest. Whether you’re stopping by for a pint, tucking into a delicious locally sourced supper, or settling in for a coastal escape, there’s always a warm welcome.

On the menu, it’s all about traditional pub food created with the finest seasonal and local produce, and the best Sunday roasts in the area. Behind the bar, you’ll find a cracking range of cask ale and craft beer, plus local cider and a great wine selection. Outside, our beer garden is ideal for al fresco drinking and dining – perfect for a laidback lunch, or a few pints of Butcombe in the sunshine.

What you'll be doing:


  • Supporting the Head Chef in
    producing high-quality food in line with company food brief.
  • Assuming full responsibility
    for kitchen operations during the absence of the Head Chef, managing
    duties such as rota management, food safety protocols, and cleaning
    schedules.
  • Ensuring the food service
    meets and enhances customer expectations, embodying our company values:
    Set the Bar High, From the Heart, Raise the Spirits, and Make us the Talk
    of the Town.
  • Assisting in maintaining
    gross profit margins through menu planning, stock control, portion
    management, and menu pricing.
  • Ensuring compliance with
    health & safety, food safety, and fire safety regulations within the
    kitchen.
  • Assisting in ongoing training
    and development of kitchen team members.

What’s in it for you?


  • Work/Life
    Balance:
    Flexible scheduling options, with the possibility to work 3-4 days a week.
  • Liberation
    Life Access:
    Earn cash-back and save on holidays, groceries, gifts, and more.
  • Diverse
    Opportunities:
    Experience various kitchens and menus with autonomy over specials and
    events.
  • Training
    & Development:
    Benefit from industry-leading training and our 'Pillars of Progression'
    program.
  • Quality
    Ingredients:
    Work with the best locally sourced produce.
  • Team Buzz: Participate in team parties,
    events, and enjoy great rewards, including 50% off food on shift and 30%
    OFF all food, drink & accommodation, all day everyday, when you use
    your team discount in one of our managed Pubs & Inns.
  • Mental
    Health Support:
    We offer support through the Burnt Chef Project and a 24/7 Employee
    Assistance Program.

About Us: At Butcombe, we are driven by a
passion for food, drink, and service excellence. We take pride in our
accolades, for three years running we’ve won the highly prestigious Publican
Award for Best Food Offer and in 2022 and 2024 we won the Best Managed Pub Co.

Investing in our
people is central to our strategy, offering training opportunities and employee
benefits across our pubs and bars.



If you're
enthusiastic about joining a dynamic team committed to culinary excellence and
customer satisfaction, we invite you to apply and be part of our exciting
journey.
