A standout opportunity for a hands-on Chef Manager to take full ownership of a thriving daytime hospitality operation, leading both kitchen and front-of-house teams in a fast-paced, guest-focused environment. This Chef Manager role offers the rare chance to step into a genuinely balanced operation with no evening work, sociable daytime hours, and the backing of a large, growing hospitality group that continues to invest heavily in its people and sites.

This is a highly visible Chef Manager role where you will be present on the floor and in the kitchen, guiding teams through busy service periods, maintaining consistent food quality, and ensuring exceptional guest experiences. Alongside day-to-day leadership, you will manage rotas, labour planning, stock control, and compliance, while also driving team development and performance across both departments.

This Chef Manager role sits within a well-established and fast-growing garden centre hospitality group known for creating vibrant destinations that combine quality food, retail, and customer experience. The business prides itself on investing in its teams, encouraging ideas, and building long-term careers rather than short-term roles. As Chef Manager, you will be joining a supportive leadership structure that values operational excellence while giving you the freedom to run your site like your own.

If you are an experienced Chef Manager looking for a fresh challenge where you can truly lead from the front, influence both kitchen and service, and build a strong, motivated team within a respected and growing business, this could be the perfect next step in your hospitality leadership career
