What area do you recruit for?
I recruit for Head Chef and General Manager roles in the West Midlands, across all of our brands.
What do you love about your job?
I love that no two days are the same! I enjoy using my genuine passion for the hospitality sector, and my love for Mitchells & Butlers, to enable me to support candidates in joining our M&B family. I love the flexibility that the role offers me to fit around my busy life, and the opportunities given to me to allow me to meet team members and managers from all of our brands, giving me an insight into industry trends across all of our divisions.
Top three tips when applying for a job with us?
- Be proud of your skills! Ensure that your CV fully reflects your passion for the industry and your genuine experience to date.
- Ensure you have visited our business prior to the interview- we would love to hear your thoughts and insight!
- Do your research! Consider our company culture and values- how would you demonstrate our ‘PRIDE’ values every day?
Top Tips
Let your personality shine
Hospitality is a people-first industry, so let your energy and personality shine. Greet confidently and keep your tone friendly and positive. Employers notice genuine enthusiasm, be yourself and show your passion.
Prepare great examples for your interview
Be ready with two or three stories that highlight how you've supported guests, solved problems, or gone the extra mile. Use clear examples to show patience, teamwork, and initiative, even from non-hospitality roles. Specific wins help employers picture you delivering the same standard for their guests.
Show you embrace change and challenge
High-volume settings move fast, so embrace change, variety, and teamwork. Show you're open to different shifts, tasks, and learning new systems or service styles. A positive, can-do attitude often matters more than experience so lean into growth.
