Summary
About us:
At Palmer & Howells, we recognise that food is more than what you eat, and we also recognise that our staff are more than what's on the surface! If you have a passion for creating exceptional food then our Catering Assistant role could be perfect for you. The schools we serve go beyond the norm - they hold a real sense of collaboration, a canvas to paint togetherness on. We are looking for someone with these values to join our community of dedicated, and innovative food creators.
We're a fast-paced business with lots of opportunity and space to grow into. Development opportunities are high and we're looking for people with the flexibility and drive to grow with us.
What to expect:
Instilling a sense of teamwork, collaborating closely with the wider P&H team to produce freshly prepared lunches for pupils and school staff
Adhering to all safety guidelines including Food Hygiene and Health & Safety policy
Keeping a clean kitchen environment
Working with efficiency to maintain requirements over busy lunchtimes
Completing requirements for food service at occasions such as meetings and sports events
From time to time, your role may adapt slightly but your core task remains the same; delivering the highest quality of food and service to pupils, ensuring that the offering is innovative, fresh and delicious.
What you'll need:
A versatile, outgoing and people focused way of working, able to match our values
Basic Health & Safety knowledge - a Food Safety L2 certificate would be fantastic! But not essential
An interest in food preparation and cooking
The ability to work the hours listed and be able to easily commute to the location
Firstly, we offer fantastic hours. You'll work Monday to Friday during school term time meaning more time with friends and family and no working at Christmas!
This role is:
30 hours per week - 9am - 3pm
Working 34 weeks per year based around term time - what could you do with all that time off?
Highly competitive hourly pay
You'll also benefit from:
Working for a fast growing, ambitious company. There is no ceiling here in terms of where you can take your career
A dedicated L&D team to support you in developing your skills including apprenticeships and training courses that are available for everyone.
Palmer & Howells is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, along with their protection. Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening, including checks with employers and the Disclosure and Barring service (DBS)
