Be a Chef, but most importantly be you!
At Bishopstrow, we're entering an exciting new chapter, and we're looking for talented chefs to be part of it.
Voted into The Times' 100 Best Places to Stay, Bishopstrow is a whimsical country house hotel set within 30 acres of glorious Wiltshire countryside, and there's genuinely nowhere quite like it.
With significant investment across the hotel, including our spa, grounds and expanded eating and drinking spaces, Bishopstrow continues to grow and evolve. As we develop our food and beverage offering, we're growing our kitchen brigade to match our ambitions.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join an established team, bring your own ideas and experience, and play a part in shaping the next chapter of Bishopstrow's food journey. Much like the hotel itself imaginative, warm, and never boring. We're a playful team who back each other to stay unconventional. Our community is diverse, inclusive and genuinely big-hearted; the kind of place where you're encouraged to be fully, unapologetically yourself.
We care deeply about our guests, each other, and the wider community. And yes we're absolutely serious about giving people a bloody good time.
