What we need in a nutshell
We love creating exciting dining concepts across our locations and finding talented chefs to take them forward. In this Kitchen Team Leader role you will be preparing and cooking for a busy restaurant and helping to manage a team of Line Chefs, Kitchen Assistant and Kitchen porters.
Who we are?
Sandy Balls Holiday Village is a world away from your day to day, with more trees than you can… well, shake a stick at. We have resident alpacas, a bush-craft school and forest laser tag, along with the usual holiday heroes of cycling and swimming. But New Forest holidays are also about tranquillity, which is why our Retreat spa and cosy, cottage-style lodges and caravans are here to help our guests unwind.
Part of the Away Resorts family, with 27 self-catered parks which all have their unique appeal! Check them out on our website for more information:.

* Helping to control food margins through effective stock management
* Championing and implementing health and safety and hygiene policies to ensure team and guest safety
