Job description

Fairmile Grange Nursing Home. An Allegra Home.

At Allegra Care, we follow a household model of care creating warm, family-style environments where residents feel truly at home.

Our compassionate teams build meaningful relationships, supporting independence, dignity and wellbeing every day.

Join us and make a genuine difference in a caring, close-knit community.

Here at our beautiful care home, we provide a wonderfully domestic model of care, and mealtimes are always a highlight of the day.

We are looking to welcome an energetic, qualified chef, with big ideas and an understanding of special dietary needs.

We have 40 hours a week available, so the perfect role for someone looking for an opportunity to make a real difference.

You'll be able to help design menus, working with residents and managers to design and tailor food that provides an excellent nutritional balance, while providing a hospitality experience you can be proud of.

We are a growing company, and will support you to provide opportunities to build a career in this growing, exciting sector.

We'll pay up to £15.68 an hour.

The home is a seven day a week business, but the hours are much more flexible and family friendly than regular, mainstream hospitality.

Join us today and find a fulfilling, challenging and immensely rewarding career with us here in the New Forest.
