Sous Chef

Sous Chef

Lying just off the main parade, in the beautiful village of Claygate, the Foley offers its guests a warm welcome, delicious food, outstanding drinks, and even a great night's sleep for those spending the night in one of the pub's 17 rooms.

The team is responsible for creating a great atmosphere that our guests enjoy. From our amazing front of house team, our talented chefs, our hard working housekeeping team and our welcoming receptionists, everybody plays a vital part.

Working at the Foley gives you the opportunity to play a key role in growing the pub's reputation locally and beyond, as well as becoming a member of a fun, vibrant and friendly team.

We look for future Foley Superstars who are bags of enthusiasm, energy, a can do attitude and a customer focused mentality. Our customers are at the heart of everything we do, and we expect our teams to live by that mantra daily, serving amazing fresh, seasonal food, and delivering outstanding service.
