Do you have experience of leading a team to success in the kitchen and fancy making a move? Or maybe you fancy bringing your kitchen management skills to the pub and restaurant business.

Based within a district you will need to drive and have access to your own vehicle. With the support of your district armed with a training plan you will grow your team and smash your targets. 

When you become Head Chef in Training, you’ll learn how to build a kitchen to be proud of the ‘Mitchells & Butlers’ way. You'll be ready to go in no time. Most of our Head Chefs in Training are in their own kitchen within 6 months.

Join us at Vintage Inns, a collection of rural pubs where muddy boots and paws are welcome. You’ll find roaring log fires, traditional food and a cosy atmosphere. If you want to be part of the Inn crowd, we want to hear from you.

This is a suitable opportunity for somebody looking for their first Head Chef appointment.
