Talent Acquisition Manager at Watergate Bay Hotel | SeaSpace Newquay | Another Place The Lake | Another Place The Lachrie | Beach Retreats
At Watergate Bay, we don't just provide a place for our guests to rest their heads - we create memorable experiences that they'll remember for a lifetime. It’s all about the balance of life. Being active, getting amongst the elements, spoiling yourself a little, chilling out, getting cosy, and most of all having a good time.
Coming back to good food, cheeks glowing from the day’s adventures, is at the heart of the Watergate Bay experience. We want to inspire our guests with the best seasonal menus, local produce and contemporary dishes, and give them eating and drinking experiences to remember.
We’re looking for team members who care about Cornwall and its way of life, you’ll have a passion for local produce and a keen interest in our food suppliers.
Our Chef Development Programme:
We’re looking for an aspiring chef with big ideas and boundless talent, someone who is looking to progress through our chef levels in an exciting career journey and is passionate about food and creating wonderful experiences for our guests.
This rewarding 12-month programme is designed to equip you with all the skills you need for life in a professional kitchen. Throughout the programme you’ll learn from a team of exceptionally talented chefs, and you’ll gain a Level 2 Commis Chef Apprenticeship qualification.
Throughout the programme you’ll get to work in all three of our incredible kitchens for the following restaurants at Watergate Bay.
With a bold charcoal-fired heart, Zacry’s is where the hotel’s Executive Chef and chefs think global and source local – from the best quality meat and fish served with an imaginative twist, to a full plant-based menu.
Beach Hut
Staying true to its roots while embracing the new, the Beach Hut blends considered food, carefree beach dining, and a warm welcome. We showcase local, seasonal produce – combining classic favourites with lots of plant-based options for a sustainable take on the post-surf refuel.
The Living Space
Sofa, armchair, banquette table or decked ocean-view terrace? Coffee, cream tea, beer, gin or cocktails? Sharing platter, seasonal salad, hearty fillers or kids’ dinner? Anything goes in The Living Space, so find what’s right for you and settle in.
