• Follow all food safety, hygiene, COSHH, and health & safety procedures at all times
• Replenish stock and ensure correct stock rotation practices are followed
• Deliver catering items to meeting rooms and clear service areas promptly
• Work collaboratively with colleagues to ensure smooth daily operations

What you’ll bring

• Previous experience in food service, hospitality, or cleaning is desirable but not essential
