Chef De Partie
Rutland Kitchen
Chef de Partie | The Rutland Hotel, Edinburgh
We're chasing our second AA Rosette, and we're looking for a quality-focused Chef de Partie to help us get there.
Our kitchen serves three distinct venues, all built on the best sustainably sourced produce from Scotland's top suppliers. Kyloe is our 1 AA Rosette steakhouse. The Huxley serves American soul food with Scottish flair, from breakfast through dinner. Understory is our hidden West End cocktail bar, a "Five-Star Dive Bar" serving sharing plates. Three menus means real variety in a single role, and plenty to learn.
You'll take ownership of your section in a busy, high-volume kitchen. Ideally you're already a CDP, or a strong Demi ready to step up, with experience in quality-led kitchens. Rosette-level experience is highly desirable.
What you'll do
- Run your section to a consistently high standard, every service
- Support the Head Chef and Sous Chef across all three venues
- Contribute ideas to seasonal menu development
- Mentor commis and junior chefs on your section
- Uphold allergen, food safety and Food Standards procedures
- Keep waste down and help control costs through smart use of ingredients
- Help drive the kitchen towards 2 AA Rosettes
Who you are
- A confident chef with a fine dining or high-end background
- Calm and consistent under pressure, with real pride in every plate
- Organised, a clear communicator, and someone who leads their station by example
- Ambitious to grow. We develop our chefs and promote from within.
- A team player who raises the standard of everyone around you
What we offer
- A clear path to Junior Sous and beyond
- Fully funded development and training programmes
- Flexible work patterns that respect your life outside the kitchen
- Competitive pay plus TRONC
- Access to up to 50% of your earnings before payday
- Discounts across all Signature Group venues
If you want to be part of a kitchen that's going somewhere, we'd love to hear from you.
