• Report accidents, near misses, and any equipment or chemical shortages promptly to the Chef or Supervisor.

What You Bring

• A positive, can-do attitude with a commitment to keeping work environments clean, safe, and organised.
• Good communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to support colleagues and follow instructions efficiently.
• The ability to work reliably under pressure while maintaining high standards of hygiene and cleanliness.
• A basic Food Hygiene Certificate (or willingness to work towards one)
• An Enhanced DBS clearance is required and will be carried out.
• A proactive and dependable approach, with a willingness to learn, develop skills, and help improve kitchen operations.
• Previous experience in a catering, hospitality, or food service environment, particularly in a school or similar setting, is desirable but not essential.
