Snr Chef De Partie

Senior Chef de Partie (Progression to Junior Sous / Sous)-Luxury Boutique Hotel, Co. Clare

TOPCHEFS Careers & Recruitment is recruiting on behalf of a truly exceptional, discreet luxury property in Co. Clare. This is not a "run-of-the-mill" CDP post. It's a Senior Chef de Partie opportunity in a small, high-standard kitchen where the food is the reason guests travel - and where the right chef is being hired with a coherent development plan toward Junior Sous / Sous level within 6-12 months.

What makes this one different?

• Fine dining at a genuinely high level, in a boutique luxury setting
• The restaurant experience is tasting menu-led, with a strong emphasis on precision, consistency, and beautiful produce
• Led by a Head Chef with Michelin-star kitchen pedigree (Ireland + UK) - a serious operator, and a serious learning environment
• A tight operation where talented chefs are seen, trusted, and promoted quickly

The role

• Job title: Senior Chef de Partie (development track to Junior Sous / Sous)
• Location: Co. Clare (Burren region)
• Standards-led section work in a small brigade, with real responsibility and progression potential

Package highlights

• Salary: €35,000 starting (plus monthly tips)
• Subsidised on-site accommodation available (a major benefit in this market)
• Staff meals provided during the season
• Holiday allowance and an excellent overall benefits package (details shared with shortlisted candidates)

Who this suits

You're a strong CDP (or senior CDP) who wants the next step, but wants to earn it in the right kitchen - not in a circus. You care about detail, you move with purpose, and you want to be part of a place that is pushing standards forward.
