Chef de Partie

Hello Margate

Pearly Cow Margate is now on the lookout for our next Chef de Partie

Are you the kind of chef who knows their ribeye from their rump, can sear scallops like a sea god, and believes béarnaise is a love language? Then we want you on our line.

Pearly Cow is an independent collection of grill restaurants in York, Margate and Brighton, where we serve up the most indulgent cuts of meat and the freshest fish in gorgeous settings, where you'll feel right at home. Our kitchen is fast-paced, passionate, and just a little bit fiery (in the best way).

What you'll bring doing:

• Running your own section like a boss - whether it's grill, garnish, or fish (or wherever your skills lie)
• A diligent focus on food safety and excellent hygiene standards
• Cooking dishes to spec perfection, consistently and calmly under pressure
• Supporting our Head and Sous Chefs in keeping service smooth and standards sky high
• Training and mentoring junior staff (because greatness should be shared)
• Keeping your station clean, organised, and ready for action

What you'll bring to the table:

• A sharp knife and even sharper skills
• Experience in a busy kitchen (bonus points if you've danced with a lobster)
• A cool head under pressure and a warm heart for teamwork
• The ability to plate like Picasso and prep like a ninja
• A sense of humour and a love for Margate's quirky charm.
• Reliability, punctuality, and a passion for hospitality.

If your aspiration is to work for a company that understands you and trusts your instincts when it comes to hospitality and you've been looking for this kind of role for a while. Guess what, we've been looking for you too!

What's in it for you!

• Work in a stylish, intimate restaurant that feels more like a home than a collection of restaurants.
• Be part of a small, close knit team where your ideas matter.
• Competitive pay, and plenty of guest powered stories.
• An extra holiday day for your birthday.
• No split shifts
• All breaks are paid.
• Our team have their own team room - with their own pantry full of food, to use whenever they like. Grab a snack! Plus, get a free meal on shift.
• You can stay/dine with your family and friends in any of our hotels/restaurants/spas at a great discount.
• The satisfaction of turning a great meal into a cherished memory.

If you're ready to cook with the best, by the beach, and be part of something exciting, apply now. Your next chapter starts with a sharp knife and a splash of sea air.
