Senior Sous Chef – Dorset – Fine Dining Restaurant

Set on the stunning Weymouth coach, we are recruiting a Senior Sous Chef for a restaurant built on the simple idea that nothing beats exceptional local produce treated with respect, curiosity, and a touch of coastal flair.

 

Please note: We are unable to offer sponsorship for this role and candidates must have the right to work in the UK without visa sponsorship. If you require Sponsorship please do not apply, thank you.

 

With the fishing boats right outside the door, the brigade works with some of the freshest seafood you’ll find anywhere in the UK — often landed just hours before service.

 

Benefits:

 

  • Work life balance – 4 Day week, Sundays and Mondays off
  • Mentorship from an accomplished and forward-thinking Chef Patron
  • A contemporary kitchen built for quality
  • A supportive, ambitious team environment
  • Competitive salary plus generous tronc

 

Led by a highly respected Chef Patron with an impressive background and a reputation for nurturing talent, the kitchen delivers modern, ingredient-driven plates with clean flavours, creativity, and precision.

 

It’s a place where you can sharpen your craft, learn from one of the best, and cook food you can genuinely be proud of.

 

You’ll be working in a modern, well-equipped kitchen designed for efficiency, consistency, and calm service — a space that supports high standards rather than hindering them.

 

As Senior Sous Chef you will:

 

  • Support the Chef Patron in overseeing the smooth running of the kitchen
  • Manage the kitchen in the Head Chef’s absence; managing rotas, orders and organising any events held in the restaurant
  • Be responsible for overseeing staff training and development, as well as interviewing potential staff
  • Deliver consistently high levels culinary excellence in all food outlets
  • Contribute to menu and recipe development whilst maintaining the gross profit margins
  • Ensure that the kitchen environment is kept safe and hygienic at all times

 

If you’re a driven Sous or Senior Sous looking for a step up in a serious, produce-led kitchen by the sea, this one’s worth casting your net for.

 

Due to the number of applicants received, unfortunately we are unable to reply individually to each. Should your application be suitable for the role, then you’ll hear from us within 48 hours, thank you.
