Chef de Partie

Overview

Chef De Partie. Situated right in the middle of Balham and Clapham South tube station, The Devonshire is a popular and well-established pub and dining spot in Balham.

A fast-paced atmosphere is in all areas of the business but we also focus on the small details that make our customers have a memorable stay, customer service is key with experience preferred and big personalities welcomed!

Teamwork is key during the busier times, with communication skills being a high priority. Every year, our large self-contained garden is transformed with seasons with our DEVoted to Summer festival during the warmer months turning into a Bavarian Balham Christmas market inspired garden during the winter.

We love to work with open people, people with ideas, and energy and who are passionate about their life. Be yourself, be courteous and make conscious decisions. We will expand your knowledge of foods, wines, beers, cocktails, and coffee as you make new friends and look at your career with us helping you on your way to the bigger picture. We know life isn’t black and white so we will try to be as flexible as we can when given enough notice.
