OUR CHEF APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAMME
The journey begins as a curious chef
At The QHotels Collection, we’re passionate about providing unique opportunities for aspiring chefs to launch and elevate their careers through our Chef Apprenticeship programme. In proud partnership with Chef Benson-Smith Academy, we’re committed to nurturing the next generation of culinary talent, helping them grow into proud, skilled chefs.
Our apprenticeship offers the perfect blend of earning and learning. You’ll gain hands-on experience in one of our exceptional hotel kitchens, all while working towards nationally recognised qualifications. This programme is thoughtfully designed to attract enthusiastic chefs and equip them with the skills, confidence, and curiosity needed for long-term success and career growth within our organisation.
How will your culinary story unfold?
Through our partnership with Chef Benson-Smith Academy, we provide comprehensive training, expert guidance, and continuous support. This includes regular training at our dedicated Centres of Excellence, one-on-one mentorship from our talented culinary team, and personalised supervision throughout your journey. Over the course of the programme, apprentices will begin with a Level 2 Commis Chef qualification, progressing to a Level 3 Chef de Partie qualification.
Just like in our spa programme, offsite training is a key element of your development, and we ensure travel and accommodation are fully covered so you can focus on becoming the best chef you can be. With us, you’ll dive into an inspiring and dynamic kitchen environment, gaining not only outstanding culinary skills but also a sense of belonging, pride, and purpose.
