I'd prime a bit of ply and fix it over the gap using timber 2x1 and then tile the bugger. 🙂

Is the gap behind a kitchen unit?

the gap is on the right side of the hob area and yes there is a unit underneath it

You can get metal corners bigger than edge trims which are more than an inch should cover it.

and maybe spray paint it black 1st?

Looks like an uneven wall problem to me. Did you have to straighten the wall out?

part right russel mate ..the wall is out ..but the work top actually got cut like that 🙁

so why isn't who ever cut the top not sorting it out..?...

They bodged it , so they should sort it.....too big a gap to cover with tiles.....

ok what i actually did was back butter tiles and bring the tiles closer to the work top...then i wedged some card board pretty tight into the gap and used BLACK Silicon to level it off with the work top...then i ran white Silicon across ...

here's what it looks like

(to be honest i wasn't to happy with it ..but the customer thought it looked pretty good considering the inch gap that was there before)
