Head Butcher

Job Location:

Dukes The Palm Dubai Hotel



Inspired by the spirit of Parisian boulevard cafés and the original Colbert bistro, the Colbert Collection is united not by style or geography, but by a shared sensibility. These are places where culture, conversation and culinary rituals naturally converge, shaped by the rhythm of the destinations they call home.

Daringly distinct and defined by its own immutable character, each hotel in the collection captures something elusive yet unforgettable: moments that stir emotion, awaken curiosity, and remain with you long after you depart. If you are drawn to hospitality with soul and substance, the Colbert Collection is your kind of place.
