Head Chef - Central Production Unit
We’re recruiting a Head Chef to lead the Central Production Kitchen for a boutique events company just outside London.
This is a production-focused role, where organisation, consistency, and leadership are key to ensuring every element of food production runs smoothly and efficiently.
