Head Chef Job Description

Company Description

Kosher Scotland is a luxury travel company that caters to Jewish travelers looking to explore Scotland while keeping kosher. Based in Glasgow, we provide luxury vacation packages that allow our clients to experience the country's unique culture, heritage, and natural wonders. We take pride in offering tailored and personalized services to ensure that our clients have an unforgettable experience.

  • Experience in managing kitchen operations
  • Detail oriented
  • Good interpersonal skills
  • Willingness to travel 
  • All relevant food safety certificates

Job Description

We are recruiting an energetic Head Chef to oversee the logistics of our food supply and catering operations. Based at our prep kitchen in Glasgow, you will also travel to some spectacular locations across Scotland and potentially further afield.  


  • You will have opportunities to get involved in the group tours. 
  • Full training will be given in Kosher methods 
  • On-site Kosher supervisor will assist you. 
  • We're looking for someone who can take the lead in our catering operations.
  • Communicating with clients to plan menus before they arrive in Scotland
  • This position is available straight away for the right chef.
  • You will be able to hire help as needed.

This role is partially office-based as we are looking for someone who has great planning skills, attention to detail, and the ability to delegate tasks as we plan for each trip. We are also looking for someone with senior chef experience who can handle cooking and kitchen management as required.


For each trip you will work with the travel team and clients to create a catering plan based on the budget and preferences. We normally arrange 2-3 meals per day for between 5-10 days consecutively on our trips. Number of participants on each trip can range from 2 to 50.


Flexibility is key in this role as it may involve making food in our prep kitchen for our clients to heat up themselves, or preparing a 5-course fine-dining meal off site. 


The Head Chef will need to handle logistics and packaging of food, will be in full charge of the prep kitchen - including food hygiene, HACCP and allergen awareness – and will also be responsible for ordering ingredients.

Salary and benefits

  • Salary of £33,000-£40,000 p/a dependent on experience 
  • 100% of all tips you receive
  • Two weeks paid holiday in Winter on top of statutory holidays.
