As Head Chef at the Royal Oak you'll lead the way in creating a kitchen to be proud of. You’ll be inspiring your team, instilling the passion that ensures all the food that leaves the kitchen is of the highest standard. Managing all areas of the kitchen, you’ll keep our guests coming back for more.
Housed in a Grade II listed building, The Royal Oak boasts original exposed beams and brickwork, traditional wood paneling, and plush furnishings, stylishly blending sumptuous period features with contemporary touches and creating many a cosy corner, there’s also an inviting beer garden.
Just a 20 minute stroll from Oxford station and with frequent bus links to the city, The Royal Oak’s location on the Woodstock Road makes it a landmark pub.
Join us at Castle Pubs, where each one of our pubs has its own story to tell. Think urban pubs packed with personality, craft beers and a unique atmosphere. If you’ve got pints of personality, we want to hear from you.
This is a suitable opportunity for somebody looking for their first Head Chef appointment.
