Sous chef

Overview

Be Yourself – Be a Bold Team Player – Be Leonardo. Once you’re part of the team, you’re part of the Leonardo community of over 55 hotels across the UK & Ireland! The Sous Chef will support the strategic initiatives and objectives of the Kitchen department, as well as supervising day‑to‑day operations. All members of the department work together to create memorable moments for guests, in line with both company and hotel‑specific service standards, and collaborate closely with other departments within the hotel.

You will act as an ambassador for your own hotel and the wider Leonardo Hotels estate, demonstrating the company vision, mission, and values. At all times, you will treat others around you with respect, dignity, and fairness.
