Job Description

EXECUTIVE CHEF – LIFESTYLE LUXURY HOTEL, LONDON


This is a senior role within a design-driven luxury hotel in central London, known for its creative atmosphere, strong sense of community and busy, all-day food and drink scene. The hotel attracts a mix of hotel guests, London locals and a global audience who come as much for the energy as they do for the stay.


Food and drink sit at the heart of the experience. The operation includes a destination restaurant, a relaxed but high-quality casual dining concept, cocktail-led bar food, events, room service and staff dining. Menus are rooted in quality produce, confident flavours and global influence, delivered in a way that feels accessible rather than formal.


You will lead the entire culinary operation, shape the food culture and be a visible, hands-on presence across the hotel.

  • Set the tone for food, standards and kitchen culture across all outlets.
  • Lead, motivate and develop large teams across different styles of service.
  • Create kitchens that are calm, organised and collaborative.
  • Oversee daily service for restaurants, events, room service and staff dining.
  • Work closely with senior hotel leadership, front-of-house and bar teams.
  • Champion cleanliness, structure and consistency.


THE BUSINESS SIDE

  • Own food and labour costs across multiple outlets.
  • Manage purchasing, suppliers and stock with a practical approach.
  • Review performance regularly and make informed decisions.
  • Balance creativity with commercial awareness.


FOOD & IDENTITY

  • Deliver high-quality food that fits the hotel’s lifestyle positioning.
  • Lead menu development, seasonal changes and one-off events.
  • Focus on good sourcing, strong technique and flavour-led cooking.
  • Stay connected to London’s food scene and evolving guest expectations.


ABOUT YOU

  • Experience as an Executive Chef or senior Executive Sous in a multi-outlet hotel.
  • Background in Michelin or Rosette-level kitchens.
  • Comfortable leading big teams in a fast-moving environment.
  • Approachable, calm and standards-driven.
  • Passionate about food, people and culture.


PACKAGE

  • Salary package £90,000 - £100,000
