About the role

Our Catering Managers cook delicious and nourishing meals for people with a range of dietary requirements. No two days will ever be the same, but your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

• Managing the day-to-day running of the kitchen
• Preparing, cooking, and serving food
• Understanding people's needs, likes, and choices to develop suitable menus
• Ensuring your Catering Team complies with food hygiene standards
