The vacancy
Hours: 12:00 – 14:00, Saturday and Sunday (4hrs per week) Location: Sir William Harpur House, Bedford
Reports to: Catering Services Manager
Looking for a hospitality role that offers structure, purpose, and flexibility to work around studies or other employment? We’ve got just the thing.
This role offers a consistent pattern over weekends only - a schedule that allows you to continue with your studies or other employment, while still being part of a rewarding and fast-paced environment. There will be occasional overtime available to boost your income, although this is not mandatory nor guaranteed.
Please note: Unfortunately, due to service needs, the days and times for this role are fixed and not flexible.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Assisting chefs with food prep and kitchen duties
* Keeping the kitchen and dining areas clean, safe, and well-stocked
* Helping reduce food waste and maintain hygiene standards
* Contributing to menu ideas based on resident feedback
* Ensuring food safety and health regulations are always met
Why This Role Stands Out
* Work-life balance: Enjoy your afternoons and evenings—no late-night shifts!
* Stable hours: 12:00 – 14:00, Saturday and Sunday (4hrs per week)
* Supportive team: Be part of a kitchen that values collaboration and care
* Meaningful impact: Help deliver meals that brighten our residents’ days
What We’re Looking For
* A team player with a can-do attitude and attention to detail
* Someone who takes pride in their work and communicates well
* Knowledge of food safety and kitchen equipment (Level 2 Food Hygiene is a plus!)
* Experience in catering or hospitality is desirable, but not essential
We believe in rewarding our team with more than just a paycheque. In addition to a wealth of other benefits and as part of our commitment to your wellbeing and development, we offer:
* Cycle to Work Scheme
* Retail Discounts
* 28 Days Annual Leave + Bank Holidays
* Professional Development Opportunities
* Private Health Care
* Employee Assistance Programme
* Generous Pension Scheme
* Christmas Savings Club
