ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you an experienced catering assistant, commis chef, or cook that takes pride in your work?

Are you looking for your next challenge without split shifts and anti-social hours?

We’re currently recruiting for a Cook to join our passionate, hard-working, and friendly catering team, to create delicious meals for our residents.

Nutrition is an important element of the care package that we provide. You’ll be actively involved in the nutritional needs of our residents to ensure a high-quality dining experience for everyone. You’ll get to know our residents and their families, understanding and accommodating their personal preferences. Some weekend work will be required.

Joining us means becoming part of our extended family. You’ll work alongside other team members who are passionate about providing care, warmth, and kindness to all those who live and work in our homes.

AND IN RETURN

The Trust is a great place to work; we’ve been providing care for almost 1,000 years and are currently the second-largest not-for-profit provider in the UK. We reinvest every penny we make into our residents, colleagues, and care homes. We offer a range of benefits, including a competitive salary, training, and development, along with PPE and daily testing to keep our colleagues safe.

Here are some benefits you'll enjoy as a valued team member:

• 28 days holiday (including Bank Holidays)
• Free uniform
• Free DBS
• Higher rates of pay at weekends
• Access to our Employee Assistance Programme
• Refer a Friend scheme rewarding you up to £ for every successful recommendation
• Blue Light Card and “My Rewards” programme, offering discounts on shopping, days out, restaurants, and more

ABOUT YOU

You should have previous experience working in a professional kitchen and catering for specialist diets, providing meals for large groups, alongside a Basic Food Hygiene Certificate. Ideally, you’ll also be working towards a Level 2 Diploma in Food Production and Cooking or equivalent, but this is not essential.

You’ll be confident engaging with our elderly residents to understand their individual needs and enjoy being part of the wider team in the home.
