Commis chef

Gordon Ramsay, Jamie Oliver, Raymond Blanc … Chefs have never been so famous. Of course, most chefs don’t spend 75% of their time on TV or writing books. 

Let’s start with commis chef. It may be the bottom of the career ladder, but one day it could lead to the heady heights of a career in the spotlight.

More details of that job

When you start out you should be rotated through different areas of the kitchen, such as vegetables, meat, fish, pastries and sauces.

You may end up doing some of the following… 
Making sure good hygiene and health and safety are present at all times
Making ingredients for the team
Measuring dish ingredients and portion sizes
Helping with deliveries of the food stock

Basically, you’ll be starting at the bottom but if you’re a quick learner you can quickly progress up the ranks.

The good points of commis chef...

Kitchens are a fantastic example of teamwork responsible for preparing and deliveringa good quality, delivered on time and kept hot. You can expect banter and friendship although you will – more than likely – be shouted at on a daily basis as the head chefs get hot and stressed!

...and the bad ones

Commis starts Early to get the prep work done and  finishes late for the clearing up. It means you’ll be working long hours and you can forget having your weekends and bank and religions holidays free unless you are very lucky.

This is a passion so you have to be willing to work yourself pretty-much into the ground to get ahead.

 But is it really the job for me?

You have to be both practical and creative in order to be a good chef, and the top chefs also have incredible ambition. There are no set rules for who this job will suit as long as you’re not afraid of hard work.

Chef jobs can be found in everywhere from a local takeaway to some of the UK’s fanciest hotels so you can easily find a workplace to suit you.
