Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Pastry Demi Chef de Partie supports the pastry kitchen team in preparing breads, desserts, chocolates, cakes and other baked items to The St. Regis London’s standards. Candidates should have professional pastry or bakery experience, sound food-safety knowledge and an understanding of preparation, portion control, presentation and kitchen hygiene. A culinary qualification is helpful, though practical experience and enthusiasm may be equally valuable. The successful candidate is expected to work accurately under pressure, follow recipes and instructions, maintain excellent cleanliness, manage ingredients responsibly and cooperate with chefs and service teams. Flexibility for early starts, evenings, weekends and public holidays is required. As this is a pre-opening position, adaptability, teamwork and a positive attitude toward establishing new procedures will be especially important.
