Mealtimes are a key part of life here, and we are now looking for a committed and enthusiastic Kitchen Assistant to join our friendly team. This is your opportunity to support our chefs in creating nutritious, enjoyable meals that truly make a difference to our residents’ day.

• 5.6 weeks annual leave (based on a full time contract)

Your role:
As Kitchen Assistant, you will help with preparing ingredients, keeping the kitchen clean and organised, and ensuring safe food handling at all times. You will also assist with receiving deliveries and maintaining stock, supporting the smooth daily running of our kitchen.

Whether you are plating up meals, wiping down surfaces or sharing a kind word with a colleague, your work will contribute to a positive environment where residents feel cared for and valued.
