Course Overview
Senior Production Chefs manage a team to produce standardised dishes and menus within a kitchen environment. They strive to produce customers’ meals consistently to perfection according to predetermined specifications. They have the ability to work independently and lead a team in often highly challenging kitchen environments. Senior Production Chefs are likely to work in organisations where brands, recipes and menus have been created by a central development team.
