Oz & Isle Restaurant The Hobson Cambridge

We're looking for a talented and ambitious Chef de Partie to take a leading role within the kitchen operation of Oz & Isle, the signature restaurant at The Hobson Cambridge.

Oz & Isle offers a contemporary dining experience inspired by Australian hospitality, combining quality ingredients, vibrant flavours, and a strong beverage-led concept.

The Role

This isn't a traditional Chef de Partie position.

As Kitchen Lead, you'll oversee the day-to-day kitchen operation, leading lunch and dinner service, managing stock control and ordering, maintaining HACCP compliance, and supporting the development of the kitchen team.

Working alongside a dedicated Breakfast Chef and Kitchen Assistants, you'll play a key role in maintaining standards and driving operational excellence.

What We're Looking For

• Previous Chef de Partie experience.
• Strong HACCP and food safety knowledge.
• Confidence leading service in a fast-paced environment.
• Passion for quality food and hospitality.
• Positive, hands-on leadership style.

What We Offer

• Expected earnings up to £37,000 per annum including service charge.
• £32,000 basic salary plus monthly service charge.
• 30 days annual leave.
• Hotel and dining discounts across TFE Hotels.
• Training, development, and career progression opportunities.

We welcome applications from everyone - regardless of background, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or physical and mental abilities. Diversity and inclusion are integral parts of our company culture at TFE.
