Job description

AC Hotel by Marriott Manchester Salford Quays

Occasional Worker, £12.71 per hour

We're looking for a Kitchen Assistant to help our kitchen team prepare and cook dishes to menu specification, day in and day out, with every plate presented to a high standard.

Day to day, that means:

• Assisting with the preparation and cooking of food to meet menu requirements
• Ensuring all dishes are prepared and served to a high standard of quality and presentation
• Maintaining cleanliness and hygiene across the kitchen and all food preparation areas
• Following food safety, health and hygiene regulations and procedures at all times
• Assisting with stock rotation and proper storage of food items
• Working closely with the rest of the kitchen team to keep daily service running smoothly
• Staying flexible on shifts, including evenings, weekends and public holidays, as the rota requires

Hospitality doesn't run 9 to 5, and neither do we. Our kitchen operates 7 days a week, 365 days a year, so shifts may include early mornings, evenings, weekends and bank holidays on a rota basis.

Supporting Your Hospitality Career Growth

• Fully funded apprenticeship programmes
• Internal development programmes, designed to support you as you grow within your role
• Monthly and annual team member service awards, making sure your achievements are recognised and celebrated.
