Some of the background
We’re not your average holiday company. Our guests come to our UK resorts to experience a world away from their day-to-day. When they are with us, they play crazy games, enjoy show-stopping entertainment and live in the moment. Our job is to surprise and delight them at every turn.
We need you to be the person who ensures that we deliver delight on a plate to our guests. As part of a busy kitchen team you will make sure orders are completed to a high standard and in a timely manner.
What you’ll be doing
As part of our team of holiday heroes, you will be working in our newly refurbished kitchen and bar, serving our guests with our new delicious menu, nestled in beautiful surroundings. Your day to day will include:
1. Working as part of a team you will be responsible for food preparation and cooking

3. Adhering to operational cleanliness and food hygiene
4. Supporting team members to help them be the best they can be
You will be following standards set by the company to ensure a professional working environment to deliver delight to our guests.
One more thing…holidays happen at holiday times, so you’ll need to work your magic on bank holidays and weekends too.
