Senior Pastry Chef De Partie

Heckfield Place is a beautifully restored hotel on a 400-acre farm in the county of Hampshire, just outside of London. The kitchen sources some of its produce from our biodynamic market garden on site, and chefs take regular tours of the farm to draw inspiration from what they see growing. The kitchen is currently looking for a Senior Chef De Partie - Pastry to join our dynamic pastry kitchen. Most of our desserts are created to showcase the fruits, flowers, and fragrant leaves from the farm, and our paired back approach to afternoon tea allows us to serve simple cakes, which are made fresh daily. We make all our own naturally leavened sourdough bread, as well as a small selection of handmade pastries for breakfast. To lead, manage and oversee the pastry section, ensure exceptional standards in preparation, presentation and consistency. This role requires strong leadership, organization, and a passion for developing junior team members while maintaining the highest culinary standards. We are looking for a chef that is willing to learn and has an enthusiastic approach to a unique style of cooking. The ideal person will have a passion for working seasonally and be opened to learning new styles and techniques. At Heckfield we pride ourselves on providing training, development and a chance to progress within the company.
