Job Description

A Food Development Manager is required for an independent group of pubs who have a clear focus on fresh, British and local provenance across its menu where possible. The Group has a strong individual style rather than a branded theme, and as such require a Chef with a proven track record of developing teams and delivering the highest food standards at all times across the business; a Chef who recognises 'what good looks like' and is able to ensure that food values are developed front and back of house and that commercial targets are met. You will be accountable for setting standards, delivering ongoing training sessions that will engage, inspire, and educate site Chefs, as well as giving them the confidence to be proactive in their daily roles. You will act as a creative support, identifying individuals and site needs, creating a programme that sets the highest standards. You will need to be a self starter who others will gravitate to, being open and receptive to all levels of management. As a frequent visitor to the individual pubs you should be aware of potential business opportunities and be able to feed these back to the central development team objectively with a clear rationale, being able to influence decisions that will ultimately deliver increased sales. You will work closely with Area Managers and Operational Teams playing a key role driving the continued success of the business covering a number of sites in the London area. We consider the ideal candidate to have a quality Chef background having worked in Gastro Pub or Restaurant environments, Rosette or Michelin recommended, with sustained periods of employment that demonstrate you have played a significant role in evolving and developing the food offering and the business as a whole.
