Chef de Partie — Full Time
RTCafé Grill & Thompson's, Ryde
We're looking for an experienced, full-time Chef de Partie to join our kitchen team in Ryde.
You'll know the RT name and what we stand for: fantastic food, cooked to a consistently high standard, with guests coming back time and again. Now we want the right person to help us keep delivering exactly that.
This is a hands-on role working alongside our other chefs in a genuinely fast-paced kitchen. It's busy, it's high-energy, and the standards are high — but it's also a friendly, fun place to work with a team that pulls together and takes real pride in what leaves the pass.
What we're looking for
You'll be an experienced Chef de Partie who can run your section with confidence and hold your own when service gets busy. Beyond the cooking, the things that matter most to us are the things that make a kitchen work: ultimate professionalism, excellent timekeeping and reliability, a warm and friendly attitude towards the whole team, and impeccable standards of hygiene and cleanliness at all times.
If you take pride in your craft, thrive under pressure, and want to be part of a team that's serious about food but great to work with, we'd love to hear from you.
The details
Full-time position, based at RTCafé Grill & Thompson's in Ryde. Competitive pay depending on experience.
To apply, get in touch with a bit about yourself and your kitchen experience — we look forward to meeting you.
RT Café and Grill, Ryde
RT Café Grill and Thompson's both reopened at Royal Maritime House in Ryde, in March 2024. The grill serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner and has a vibrant bar looking out to sea. It has a laid-back vibe and a stunning garden that is open for dining and drinks during the warmer months. New for 2025 is the atmospheric, club-feel Cellar. With two private dining rooms, one with its own private bar, one with a kitchen pass view, and both looking into the new wine cellar, they are ideal for parties, wine tastings and other events.
