Be Yourself – Be a Bold Team Player – Be Leonardo
Once you’re part of the team, you’re part of the Leonardo community of over 55 hotels across the UK & Ireland!

The Commis Chef will support the smooth running and objectives of the Kitchen. All members of the department work together to create memorable moments for guests, in line with both company and hotel-specific service standards, and collaborate closely with other departments within the hotel. You will act as an ambassador for your own hotel and the wider Leonardo Hotels estate, demonstrating the company vision, mission and values. At all times, you will treat others around you with respect, dignity and fairness.

As a Commis Chef you’ll be right in the heart of the hotel, so we want you to take pride in everything you’ll be doing to support the Head Chef and keep things running like clockwork. Take a deep breath because you’ll be stepping into a busy role! You’ll thrive under pressure and see a future working with food, and with Leonardo Hotels of course, whilst working as part of a vibrant team to exceed our guests’ expectations.

If you’re our ideal Commis Chef, you will:

  • Absolutely love the Kitchen environment and working within a team of Chefs to deliver excellent food and service
  • Have a willingness to learn, adapt and deliver to the high standard of food our guests expect
  • Be passionate about your working area and responsibilities
  • Be keen to step up when the situation demands
  • Have an eagle eye for attention to detail
  • Aspire to grow with us – with our amazing Junior Chef Programme, you can take your skills and career to the next level
Some of the perks our Commis Chef could enjoy include:
  • Special rates on Leonardo Hotel rooms across the UK & Europe

  • Company-wide recognition scheme: you could earn vouchers to spend on a wide range of high street shops

  • Talent referral scheme

  • Thank You Week: from ice cream trucks to yoga classes and lots in between!

  • Wellbeing Calendar

  • Ongoing job-related training programmes with clear paths for progression

We’re committed to creating a workplace where every individual—regardless of background, identity, or lived experience—is welcomed, valued, and respected for who they are. Belonging means embracing our differences and ensuring everyone feels seen, heard, and empowered.

Why come join us as a Commis Chef?

We look after our colleagues just as well as we look after our guests. Our regular Learning Bites, “Come Join Us Guest Care” training and Wellbeing webinars all help your progress with us. With support on tap, top-notch practical training and clear progression you’ll be on track for a brilliant future in Hospitality!
