Just about to undergo an exciting rebrand and refurbishment, The Clubhouse at Bentham Golf Course is entering a new chapter as a vibrant destination for golfers, visitors and event guests. We are looking for two passionate and innovative chefs to join our team and work closely together to create an exciting food offering that reflects the quality and personality of our venue.
This is an opportunity for chefs who want creative freedom and ownership. We are not looking for someone to simply follow a set menu. We are looking for individuals who want to develop dishes, introduce seasonal specials and help shape the future direction of our food operation.
The Role
As Chef at The Clubhouse, you will take a hands-on role in creating and delivering a fresh, appealing menu that caters to a variety of customers throughout the year.
During the summer months, the focus will be on busy café-style service, serving golfers, visitors and groups with high-quality, freshly prepared food. During the winter season, the emphasis shifts towards private functions, events, festive celebrations and special dining experiences.
Working as part of a two-chef team, you will have significant input into menu development, food purchasing, seasonal offers and special events.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop and deliver menus for The Clubhouse.
- Create seasonal dishes, daily specials and event menus.
- Produce high-quality food consistently during busy service periods.
- Manage kitchen operations alongside your fellow chef.
- Support ordering, stock control and food cost management.
- Maintain excellent food hygiene and health & safety standards.
- Work with management to develop food offerings that drive customer satisfaction and repeat business.
- Assist in planning and delivering catering for functions, golf societies and special events.
- Ensure a clean, organised and efficient kitchen environment.
About You
We are seeking chefs who:
- Have previous experience in a professional kitchen environment.
- Are passionate about fresh food and menu development.
- Enjoy being creative and bringing new ideas to the table.
- Can work independently while also collaborating effectively with a colleague.
- Have strong organisational and time management skills.
- Are committed to delivering excellent customer experiences.
- Hold relevant food hygiene qualifications (preferred).
- Have a positive, proactive attitude and strong work ethic.
