We’re Looking for a Kitchen Superstar!

Kitchen Manager (Nursery Setting)

Where Food Meets Fun!

Do you love cooking wholesome food? Do you enjoy bringing smiles to little faces? Our client, a friendly, vibrant nursery, is searching for a Kitchen Manager who can whip up delicious meals, keep the kitchen sparkling, and sprinkle a little magic into every day!

This is the perfect role for someone who enjoys variety, creativity and a whole lot of happy chaos (the cute kind!).


What You’ll Be Cooking Up:

* Daily Deliciousness
* Prepare fresh, tasty, homemade meals and snacks for children aged 0–5.
* Create exciting seasonal menus (think bright summer salads and cosy winter warmers!).
* Serve meals to each room—yes, you’ll be the daily hero arriving with the food trolley!


Allergy-Friendly Food Love

* Whip up safe, individually prepared meals for children with allergies.
* Ensure every child gets exactly what they need to enjoy lunch safely.


Special Treats & Big Smiles

* Make fun treats for events—gingerbread men? Hot chocolate for parents? Bring it on!
* Make a few cuppas for the hardworking staff along the way.


Stock, Shop & Stay Organised

* Keep the kitchen stocked and ready, planning weekly shopping lists and placing online orders.
* Maintain food safety records (yes, we’re responsible and fun).


Kitchen Wizardry

* Keep the kitchen and utility areas sparkling clean.
* Load/unload the dishwasher, clean appliances, mop floors, tidy cupboards—basically, make the kitchen glow.
* Manage laundry like a pro—washed, dried, folded, done!


Kitchen Boss Mode

* Make sure staff using the kitchen keep it as tidy as you do.
* Own the space and keep everything running smoothly.
* Plus anything else that keeps the kitchen humming!


Who We’re Looking For

* Loves cooking and creating meals that make kids happy
* Organised, reliable, upbeat and proactive
* Enjoys working independently
* Has kitchen or catering experience (bonus points if it’s with little ones!)


Why You’ll Love This Role

* You’re not just cooking — you’re helping shape happy, healthy little humans.
* Every day is different, full of creativity, fun and purpose!


Ready to Join the Fun?

If you’re a kitchen-loving, recipe-inventing, organisation-obsessed superstar, we want to hear from you!

Apply today and help us make mealtimes magical!
