Head Chef

Posted on 15 Sep 2026
  • 43,000 - 50,000 
  • Permanent, Full Time
  • Closing in 16 days
  • Ambitions Ltd

Fancy running your own kitchen, shaping every menu, and genuinely improving residents' day-to-day quality of life? Our client is looking for a Head Chef to do exactly that, reporting straight to the CEO.

The job: plan menus that are tasty, nutritious, and on budget. Cook for a range of dietary needs, including modified-consistency meals that still look and taste great. Lead the kitchen team — hiring, appraisals, development, the lot. Keep stock levels sorted and standards of hygiene and infection control consistently high. Work alongside the Home Manager to keep raising the bar on the food offering, and be ready to step up for the occasional regulatory audit.

What you'll need: City & Guilds 7061/2 (or equivalent), a valid Food Hygiene Certificate, and two-plus years' commercial kitchen experience — ideally cooking for older people. Solid management chops (communication, budgeting, organisation) are a must, plus a good grip on health and safety rules.

44 hours a week, 7.30am–7.30pm, one-hour lunch break, overtime on the table.

Fancy it? Talk to Ambitions Recruitment today.
