Culinary Director – Flagship B&I Portfolio – London – £85K–£100K+
This is not a standard Culinary Director role.
If you're a senior culinary leader within B&I contract catering , with Michelin-level training and experience leading at scale - this is an opportunity to take full ownership of food strategy across a flagship London portfolio.
We're working with a leading contract caterer to appoint a Culinary Director who will define, elevate and future-proof the food offer across multiple high-profile corporate environments.
This role requires presence, credibility and innovation - someone who can operate at board level while still commanding respect in the kitchen.

£85,000 – £100,000+ (flexible for the right individual)
Strong bonus and package
Senior leadership position with real influence
Full autonomy over food direction and innovation
Clear progression within a forward-thinking business
High-visibility role across flagship London sites
The Portfolio
Multi-site B&I contract catering across London.
High-end, daytime-led corporate dining environments.
Restaurant-quality workplace dining.
Premium hospitality, fine dining and events.
Seasonal, modern and sustainability-led food.
Significant investment in food, people and innovation.
The Role
This is a strategic and hands-on leadership role, sitting at the heart of the business .
Lead and evolve culinary strategy across multiple sites.
Set and drive best-in-class food standards across the portfolio.
Mentor and develop Head Chefs and senior culinary teams.
Lead on food innovation, concept development and menu direction.
Deliver high-level client presentations and food strategy meetings.
Act as the culinary figurehead for the business internally and externally.
Partner closely with senior operational leadership.
About You
Proven Culinary Director / Group Executive Chef within B&I contract catering.
Strong London multi-site experience is essential.

Credible leader with longevity and progression in previous roles .
Why This Role Stands Out
This is a rare opportunity to:
Take full ownership of food across a flagship London portfolio.
Operate at a senior, strategic level with genuine influence.
Shape and elevate a food offering that is already highly regarded.
Work within a business that invests in food, people and innovation.
