Just left school and not feeling the uni route? This could be the start of something amazing. If you've got a love for food, a spark of energy, and the drive to make people smile with every plate you serve, Sodexo wants you on our team.
We're inviting you to join our Apprentice Culinary Academy as a Commis Chef - where you'll earn while you learn, gain hands-on experience in a real kitchen, and train alongside some of the best chefs in the business. You'll master essential skills, build confidence, and open doors to a career that could take you anywhere - from running your own kitchen to cooking for thousands at high-profile events.
This isn't just a job. It's your first step into a career that's rewarding, creative, and full of flavour. If you've got the passion, we've got the kitchen. Let's get cooking.
What You'll Be Serving Up:
* Dive into the buzz of a fast-paced kitchen, working side-by-side with experienced chefs
* Learn how to prep, cook, and plate dishes that taste incredible and look the part
* Take part in exclusive culinary masterclasses - from indulgent chocolate work to nutrition and plant-forward cooking
* Study towards a fully funded Commis Chef qualification
* Grow your skills and confidence every single day
What You Bring:
* No kitchen experience? No problem - bring your energy and we'll teach you the rest
* A genuine love for food and cooking
* Curious, confident, and ready to soak up new skills
* A great team player with an eye for detail
* Reliable, enthusiastic, and at your best when working with people
What We Offer:
Working with Sodexo is more than a job; it's a chance to be part of something greater. You'll belong in a company and team that values you for you; you'll act with purpose and have an impact through your everyday actions; and you'll be able to thrive in your own way. In addition, we offer:
