JOB TITLE: DEVELOPMENT CHEF – EVENTS, INNOVATION & FLAVOUR

Location: Surrey Hills (on-site)
Job Type: Full-time
Salary: £26,000–£30,000 depending on experience
Start Date: Immediate or flexible
Are you ready to move from the shadows of a hotel kitchen into the spotlight of a brand?
We’re looking for an energetic, ambitious Development Chef with banqueting or high-volume service experience and a passion for bold, beautiful food.
This is your chance to shape menus, lead innovation, and grow with a fast-moving food business known for doing things differently.
Based in a stunning countryside kitchen, our company delivers across café, catering, events, and product lines — and we’re looking for someone who wants to bring fresh thinking, creative flair, and culinary precision.

Responsibilities

· - Creating dishes for large-format events, supper clubs, and café-style service
· - Designing menus that are flavour-forward, cost-smart, and beautifully presented
· - Helping engineer dishes that work for high-volume production without losing quality
· - Working with the founder on seasonal development and customer briefs
· - Using modern equipment (Merrychef, combi ovens, blast chillers) and batch prep systems
· - Taking ownership of consistency, styling, portioning, and prep systems
· - Supporting a small, passionate team with hands-on energy and positivity
This Could Be Perfect If You:
· - Have experience in banqueting, events, hotels, or large-scale catering
· - Are looking to step up from a junior or sous chef role into something more creative
· - Want to work in a business where your ideas matter and your role evolves
· - Love Indian and Pan-Asian flavours — and want to reinterpret them with a modern eye
· - Are organised, ambitious, and comfortable balancing creativity with efficiency
· - Thrive in collaborative, fast-paced environments
