In your role as an Assistant Chef at HC-One, you'll value one thing above all: kindness. It carries across every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist Care homes. Every person working here understands that our Residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. Joining HC-One offers a wonderful opportunity to give back to these individuals. As an Assistant Chef, your responsibilities include cooking and serving nutritious, healthy meals that Residents will love. You'll support our First Chef, taking charge in their absence. Whether managing food stock, optimizing your budget, coaching colleagues, or supervising kitchen clean-up, Resident wellbeing will always be your priority.
We are committed to providing a swift onboarding process from offer to start date. We promote inclusive working practices and invite applicants from all backgrounds to join our HC-One family.
HC-One seeks an Assistant Chef with at least a Level 2 Food Hygiene Certificate and a solid understanding of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points. Beyond qualifications, we value your positive energy and ability to get along with people. Organisation, meeting deadlines, presenting food attractively, and following recipes precisely are essential. When communicating with Residents or colleagues, kindness and consideration are paramount. Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility; you should be able to recognize signs of abuse, harm, or neglect and know the appropriate actions to take. All colleagues must attend safeguarding training and undertake additional relevant training.
