As a member of our opening leadership team, you’ll play a key role in shaping the culture, guest experience, and long-term success of one of London’s most exciting new event venues.
The Executive Chef will lead the culinary launch, strategy, and daily kitchen operations for the opening of Convene Rathbone, a brand-new, high-profile Meetings & Events destination in the heart of London’s West End. Reporting directly to the General Manager, the Executive Chef will oversee all culinary offerings across Rathbone’s private lounges and large-scale corporate and private event spaces.
The role will require exceptional agility to adapt to bespoke client requests and dynamic event requirements, while driving seasonal and artisan menu development, managing department finances, and building a high-performing kitchen culture. Working closely with the Head of Culinary, the Executive Chef will also support food and training initiatives across our portfolio of properties.
The culinary direction for the flagship will be anchored in six core values: Modern, Seasonal, Generous, Innovative, Sustainable, and Commercial. The Executive Chef will ensure the food remains highly relevant to the discerning London professional and visitors from across the globe, delivering high-impact flavours and artisan quality that challenges and transcends traditional expectations of workplace hospitality.
