Background
The Royal Ocean Racing Club has been through a multi-million re-build and has just completed a busy summer season. We are looking for a talented Chef, to join our energetic and welcoming team.
Located in Cowes, the Club boasts fourteen guest rooms and enjoys spectacular views across the Solent. The new restaurant provides members and guests a selection of vibrant dishes and cuisines to sample throughout the year. The Clubhouse also acts as a venue for corporate and private functions, birthday parties and weddings.
The Clubhouse is open for breakfast daily, lunches are served Wednesday through Sunday and dinner on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings. Our menus feature much of the wonderful local produce available on the island; from locally reared lamb from the chalk downlands, to fresh crab and locally caught fish, from the surrounding waters.
We offer great dining choices, from the delicious Bar Menu to a regular Prix Fixé menu and Club Roast’s every Sunday. Our aim is to serve delicious food and create a wonderful and enjoyable atmosphere.
If you would like to be a part of this, read on; candidates require a passion for fine dining, a knowledge of preparing and cooking with fresh and local ingredients, and capable of performing under pressure.
