A former manager of some of the Ribble Valley and Lancashire’s finest restaurants has become the latest addition to East Lancashire specialist chef recruitment firm Chef Jobs UK.
Amy Hutcheson, who has worked for Ribble Valley Inns, the Inn at Whitewell and the Seafood Pub Company, brings her expertise to the company which is part of the Accrington-based Cummins Mellor Group.
The 28-year-old, a Stirling University graduate in human resource management, trained at the Gleneagles 5 star Country Hotel and Spa Resort for a year as Chef de Rang within the Gleneagles 3AA Rosette restaurant, including Andrew Fairlie’s 2 Michelin star restaurant.
She then became a supervisor before re-locating to Lancashire to join the Inn at Whitewell as a restaurant manager. After two years at the prestigious hotel near Clitheroe, Amy joined Ribble Valley Inns, which includes the Michelin-starred Northcote Manor. Amy worked across most of the Ribble Valley Inns establishments as assistant general manager before being promoted to general manager.
She then served as general manager across several sites within the Lancashire-based Seafood Pub Company.
Amy said: “I love everything about the hospitality industry: meeting new people, customers enjoying their eating experience, not to mention the buzz at the end of every service.
“I know the value of top quality staff and look forward to helping find and place them for restaurants and hotels locally and nationwide through Chef Jobs UK.”
Managing Director of Chefs Jobs UK, Richard Mellor, said: “Not only does Amy have a degree in HR, but her vast experience working in the hospitality industry means she has all the tools she needs to become an excellent recruiter in this fast-paced industry.”
Amy will be working alongside 11 other members of the Chefs Job UK team who provide temporary and permanent recruitment solutions to establishments across the UK.
