We’re a multi award-winning contract catering company, serving over 45,500 customers daily. We now have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Chef Manager to join our team.
This is a Chef Manager position working Monday to Friday, from 7am to 3:30pm (40 hours per week). The annual salary will increase to £37k after a successful probation period.
This management role involves overseeing the contract operations, liaising with the client to ensure high standards of food and service, and recruiting, training, and motivating your team.
You will also manage the budget, complete weekly reports and stock counts, and ensure your team meets GP and budget targets. This requires good planning, in-depth knowledge of contract catering, and the drive to deliver innovative food and service daily—something that sets Bartlett Mitchell apart.
You should take pride in hygiene, food safety, and compliance. You will brief and support your team and find new ways to embody our foodies values on site. You’ll be a skilled manager and chef capable of producing outstanding, seasonal, balanced, and nutritious menus inspired by quality ingredients.
We value learning at Bartlett Mitchell. You’ll attend forums and Academy workshops to stay updated on food innovation. Regular kitchen presence doesn’t mean you won’t engage with customers—interacting with diners helps measure success, inspire new ideas, and maximize sales through our concepts and innovations. Ideally, you’ll be educated to a City & Guilds 706 1 and 2, NVQ, or have equivalent skills and experience, with a Food Safety qualification at Level 3 minimum, along with Level 2 Health & Safety. You must also have excellent knowledge of Food Safety Management System requirements and COSHH.
