Job Introduction

At Sodexo, we're proud to support the Armed Forces at RAF Brize Norton, and we're looking for a friendly, reliable Inflight Catering Food Service Assistant to help us deliver high-quality service where it really matters.

This is a hands-on, people-focused role where you'll work closely with military personnel, ensure aircraft are fully stocked, and play a key part in day-to-day operations. If you're a team player who enjoys variety and thrives in a fast-paced environment, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll do:

  • Load and unload catering equipment and supplies onto aircraft
  • Prepare and assemble catering items for flight service
  • Operate vehicles on the airfield safely and efficiently
  • Work collaboratively in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment
  • Marshal high-lift vehicles and support airside operations
  • Communicate effectively with military personnel
  • Support both front and back of house operations - no two days are the same!
  • Respond to food and beverage enquiries and special requests
  • Maintain high standards of cleanliness and hygiene in all catering areas
  • Complete daily checklists and compliance documentation accurately
  • Assist with basic admin tasks related to operational catering

What you bring:

  • A full UK driving licence - essential
  • A friendly, positive attitude with professionalism and respect for others
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • A flexible and proactive approach to work
  • Basic food-handling knowledge is a bonus - but no previous experience is required. Full training will be provided.

What we offer:

Working with Sodexo is more than a job; it's a chance to be part of something greater. You'll belong in a company and team that values you for you; you'll act with purpose and have an impact through your everyday actions; and you'll be able to thrive in your own way. In addition, we offer:

  • Mental health & wellbeing support
  • Employee Assistance Programme for personal, legal, and financial advice
  • 24/7 virtual GP & lifestyle rewards
  • Discounts for you & family
  • Financial tools & retirement plan
  • Cycle to Work & Paid volunteering day
