In your role as a Kitchen Assistant at HC-One, you’ll value one thing above all: kindness. It carries across every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Every person who works here understands that our Residents are people just like them, with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

Please note this position is for 20 hours per week and requires flexibility for weekends due to the nature of care.

In return, you will enjoy access to a wide variety of benefits and services supporting your physical and psychological well-being. Throughout your career as a Kitchen Assistant, we will invest in you and offer additional support and benefits, including:

• Hourly rate subject to experience and qualifications.

• Free uniform
• Nutritious meal during shifts of eight hours or more
• Company pension scheme

• Employee Assistance Programme providing confidential support for physical, mental, and financial issues
• Recognition schemes such as ‘Kindness in Care’ and Long Service Awards

We are committed to ensuring our workforce reflects the communities we serve. We prioritize inclusive working practices and invite applicants from all backgrounds. We aim for a quick turnaround from job offer to start date.

About You

As a Kitchen Assistant, you will help prepare and serve nutritious, healthy meals that residents love. You’ll maintain high standards of cleanliness, food safety, and hygiene. Whether maintaining food supplies, showing new starters how to use equipment, or cleaning spills, Resident wellbeing will always be your priority.

We look for candidates with some kitchen experience and either an NVQ2 in Catering or Food Preparation, or the willingness to study for one. Strong record-keeping and organizational skills are essential, as is the ability to follow recipes. When communicating with residents or colleagues, kindness and consideration are key.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. You should be able to recognize signs of abuse, harm, or neglect and know what actions to take. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training relevant to their role and to seek advice or escalate concerns when necessary.
