What’s in it for you?

A warm welcome awaits you at this 40 bed Care Home and you’ll receive the usual benefits of working for a recognised, national care provider. But there is so much more on offer.

We’ll focus on your ongoing development, including e-learning, a 12 week induction programme and ongoing mentorship scheme. We’ll empower you to achieve your potential.

Sociable hours are rare in the catering world, but join us and you can enjoy them, including getting every second weekend off. Imagine what you can do with that time back!

We’re committed to your wellbeing. We’ve invested heavily in the latest PPE and cleaning products to ensure you will be working in a safe environment.

What about you?

Supporting the Chef, you’ll lead a team of Catering Assistants and prepare seasonal meals for our residents and those on specialist dietary requirements. So you'll have plenty of opportunity to put your interest and passion for food to good use.

You'll be experienced in food preparation and comfortable managing a budget, as you carry out ordering and stock control to ensure you deliver a balanced, nutritious diet.

Surrounded by a supportive team and with onsite training, your own allocated mentor and a comprehensive induction process, you'll learn the ropes in your new role in no time. But why stop there? The opportunity, support and encouragement is available to continue your catering career in a care home setting and gain national qualifications.
