Description
Senior Chef de Partie (Progression to Junior Sous / Sous)—Luxury Boutique Hotel, Co. Clare
TOPCHEFS Careers & Recruitment is recruiting on behalf of a truly exceptional, discreet luxury property in Co. Clare.
This is not a “run-of-the-mill” CDP post. It’s a Senior Chef de Partie opportunity in a small, high-standard kitchen where the food is the reason guests travel — and where the right chef is being hired with a coherent development plan toward Junior Sous / Sous level within 6–12 months.
What makes this one different?
- Fine dining at a genuinely high level, in a boutique luxury setting
- The restaurant experience is tasting menu-led, with a strong emphasis on precision, consistency, and beautiful produce
- Led by a Head Chef with Michelin-star kitchen pedigree (Ireland + UK) — a serious operator, and a serious learning environment
- A tight operation where talented chefs are seen, trusted, and promoted quickly
The role
- Job title: Senior Chef de Partie (development track to Junior Sous / Sous)
- Location: Co. Clare (Burren region)
- Standards-led section work in a small brigade, with real responsibility and progression potential
Package highlights
- Salary: €35,000 starting (plus monthly tips)
- Subsidised on-site accommodation available (a major benefit in this market)
- Staff meals provided during the season
- Holiday allowance and an excellent overall benefits package (details shared with shortlisted candidates)
Who this suits
You’re a strong CDP (or senior CDP) who wants the next step, but wants to earn it in the right kitchen — not in a circus. You care about detail, you move with purpose, and you want to be part of a place that is pushing standards forward.
