General Kitchen Assistant

We are looking for a friendly, reliable and hardworking General Kitchen Assistant to join our school catering team.

Our catering provision is runin-house, so you will be joining our own dedicated school team and playing an important part in providing a welcoming and efficient lunchtime service for our students and staff.

Working from 12:30pm to 2:30pm, Monday to Friday, you will support the catering team during our busy lunchtime period.

Duties will include:

• Supporting the preparation and service of food
• Serving students and staff during lunchtime
• Clearing and cleaning tables, work surfaces and catering areas
• Washing up and assisting with general kitchen cleaning
• Helping to maintain high standards of hygiene and food safety
• Supporting the wider catering team as required

We are looking for someone who:

• Is reliable, punctual and able to work well as part of a team
• Has a friendly and positive approach
• Is willing to work in a busy school environment
• Takes pride in maintaining high standards of cleanliness and hygiene
• Is committed to providing a good service to our students and staff

Previous catering experience would be helpful, but enthusiasm, reliability and a willingness to learn are equally important.

This is a great opportunity to become part of our school community and our own in-house catering team. The two-hour daily working pattern may be particularly suitable for someone looking for a part-time role that fits around other commitments.

If you are hardworking, approachable and would enjoy being part of a busy school catering team, we would love to hear from you.

If you have any questions, or would like an informal discussion about the role, please contact our Catering Manager, Fiona Hewitt on fiona.hewitt@sjchs.uk or 01900 873290

Applications will be assessed as they are submitted and we reserve the right to invite candidates for interview prior to the closing date and to make an appointment before this date. Therefore, we encourage interested applicants to apply as soon as possible.
