Imagine being at the heart of a vibrant cookery school, bringing flavour, creativity, and inspiration to every class. You guide guests through recipes with patience and flair, adapting to different skill levels and answering questions with enthusiasm.
Working closely with our Director of the Cookery School, you help create an experience that sparks curiosity, builds confidence, and leaves guests feeling inspired to take their new skills back into their own kitchens.
Every session is different — new people, new dishes, new opportunities to share your passion. As a Cookery School Tutor, you’re not just teaching recipes, you’re creating memorable experiences that stay with our guests long after they leave.
Our team are the heart and soul of all we do. Here’s what you’ll be up to:
- Creating a welcoming and engaging atmosphere where every guest feels supported and inspired.
- Deliver classes with flair, sharing recipes, techniques, and cuisines in a way that’s accessible and enjoyable for all skill levels.
- Maintain impeccable kitchen hygiene and demonstrate best practice in food safety at all times.
- Ensure every dish, from preparation to presentation, meets our 5* standards.
- Answering questions with enthusiasm and tailoring your teaching and recipes to the needs and dietary requirements of each guest.
We live by our values – and we’d love you to bring them to life every day:
- Open - You’re someone who brings warmth to your work and helps create a welcoming environment for others.
- Nimble - You’ll be empowered to make decisions and drive change because here, bold thinking is encouraged.
- Brilliant - We’re looking for someone who’s passionate about doing great work and always looking for ways to improve.
- Honest - Honesty is more than a value it’s how we build lasting relationships with our people, partners, and communities.

Built in 1906 as the headquarters of the North Eastern Railway, The Grand, York is a striking example of early 20th-century architecture. Designed by William Bell and Horace Field, the building showcases elegant marble interiors, oak-panelled rooms, and the majestic Grand Boardroom.
A cherished landmark in the heart of Yorkshire, The Grand was lovingly restored to its original splendour in 2010. Today, it stands as an award-winning five-star hotel, welcoming guests with the warmth, charm, and character of true Yorkshire hospitality.
