We’re looking for a Catering Supervisor to join our Hotel Services team based in London, Private Care at Guys. From enjoy creating exceptional food experiences. From managing a team, producing weekly rotas and ordering supplies, to creating a positive and energised working environment, you’ll use your catering or hospitality experience to ensure we deliver an outstanding culinary service for our patients, visitors and staff.

From the CEO to the colleagues on the floor we all have a part to play in delivering exceptional care to our patients. Others may think this is just a role in Catering but to us, you’ll be part of a wider team with a unique sense of purpose, one that helps improve lives on a daily basis.

• have experience leading frontline teams within a similar environment
• be great with people, able to communicate clearly with team members and customers
• hold a Level 3 Food Hygiene and Safety certificate in catering (or similar)
