Love the buzz of live events? Enjoy leading people and delivering great service when it matters most? Farrs Catering is looking for confident, people-focused Unit Supervisors to run our stadium units on Oxford United match days.
This is a hands‑on, fast‑paced role at the heart of the action, perfect for someone who thrives in a lively environment and enjoys being part of a close‑knitted team.
A Supportive Start - Paid Trial Shifts
To set you up for success, your first three shifts will be paid trial shifts. During these shifts, you'll work as a Catering Assistant within our units, giving you the chance to:
* Learn how our match‑day operations run
* Get to know the team and systems
* Build confidence before stepping into the Supervisor role
After successfully completing the trial shifts, you'll move onto the Supervisor rate of 17.50 per hour.
The Role
As a Unit Supervisor, you'll take ownership of a designated catering unit and be the main point of contact on event days. You'll lead by example, keep standards high, and ensure customers have a great experience from kick‑off to final whistle.
Key Responsibilities
* Oversee the setup, service, and close‑down of your unit
* Lead, motivate, and support your event‑day team
* Maintain excellent food safety, hygiene, and health & safety standards
* Handle cash management and basic reporting (including till reconciliation)
* Communicate effectively with event management, stock teams, and management staff
* Resolve service issues quickly and calmly during busy periods
* Represent Farr's in a professional, positive manner
What We’re Looking For
* Previous experience as a supervisor or team leader (hospitality, events, or retail preferred)
* Strong communication and organisational skills
* Calm, confident, and solutions‑focused under pressure
* High standards of presentation, cleanliness, and customer service
* Flexible availability to work match days (weekends and evenings)
Why Join Farrs Catering Group?
* Be part of the excitement of live football events
* Supportive team environment where many supervisors progress internally
* Paid trial shifts to help you learn the ropes properly
* Competitive supervisor pay rate
* Ideal role alongside other work or studies
* Food Hygiene training provided
* Opportunity to further work at our numerous amount of events and festivals across the event season
This role is a great fit if you:
* Already work in hospitality or retail and want better‑paid, leadership‑focused shifts without committing to full‑time hours
* Have weekday commitments (family, studies, another job) and want reliable weekend work
* Enjoy fast‑paced environments where the shift flies by
* Like leading people but still want a hands‑on role, not being stuck behind the scenes
* Want to build supervisory experience in a supportive, event‑led setting
Work Location: In person, Kassam Stadium (OX4 4XP)

If you enjoy leading people, love event‑day energy, and want a role where no two shifts are the same, we'd love to hear from you.
