Chef
Salary - £27,000 - £30,000
Closing date: 3rd February

The Catering operation consists of a large and busy restaurant together with several other catering outlets across the Museum site. Contributing to the organisation not only commercially but adding to an excellent all-round visitor experience. This is a rare opportunity to join the department at a time of growing development within the Museum.

As well as the day-to-day operation of the Museum, Events play a big part in this role. With corporate bookings, weddings & premium event days throughout the year, this is not just a visitor attraction role. We have events where we cater for up to 250 at sit-down, 3-course dinners. Equally, we have small intimate weddings for 20 people. Events are a significant income stream for the Museum and the Catering makes or breaks the event. Your creative flair for menu design will be invaluable when working with the Catering Managers to develop menus for these events.

As a chef, you will be expected to support the Catering Management Team in all aspects of food creation and preparation for our onsite restaurant, café and events catering. You will play a crucial role in achieving maximum sales and profit, motivating the catering team to deliver a high standard of food preparation, delivery and customer service.
