Job Introduction

About the role

Hospital stays can be quite a stressful time for our patients and their loved ones, a simple smile and high quality meal can put a patient at ease and make all the difference! 

At Sodexo we are passionate about food and we place our patients at the heart of everything we do. To provide a great service, we have a team of passionate Food Service Assistants behind us and we currently have a vacancy to join our team!

You'll be responsible for serving food and beverages to patients, customers and staff with due care and attention. You'll also collect and wash up the dirty crockery and cutlery afterwards, always ensuring your work areas and kitchen areas are glistening!   

Sodexo reserves the right to close this advert early if we are in receipt of a high number of applications.

A few things about you

This is a customer facing role so it’s important to have a positive, friendly attitude. You'll work as part of a team and will need to have strong communication skills.

Experience working in a similar industry (i.e. food service, catering or hospitality) would be great, but generally customer service and food handling experience will tick the box!

A general knowledge of health and safety procedures is also required, with knowledge of basic food hygiene and cleaning.
