If you’re looking for a nice work/life balance role for the next few months, working with a vibrant, friendly, and passionate company, this one is for you!  

Our canteen provides busy teams with healthy, fresh organic meals. The meals are heavily subsidised, and one of our most popular co-owner benefits.

Our food is simple – all about the veg, but tasty. Working as part of a small, close-knit team, you’ll produce and serve super tasty meals made with fantastic organic ingredients sourced from our own farm, butchery, and dairy. Your dishes should be a showcase for the best seasonal veg available, so creative flair is essential. As is passion, and warmth for others.

The work is varied, and you will be doing several different tasks, creating dishes, food preparation, serving at the hot plate, keeping the kitchen clean and dealing with daily paperwork, as well as running service.

Skills & Experience needed - 

• At least 2 years’ professional catering experience in a similar environment
• Culinary school diploma/degree preferred.
• Up-to-date certification in Food Hygiene and Catering (ideally level 3) and food allergen awareness training
• Experience/confidence to run kitchen service with the help of an assistant chef.
• Supervisory experience preferred.
• Great customer service skills (our co-owners will be your customers and biggest fans)
• A genuine passion and interest in food and cooking with fresh, seasonal, organic ingredients

Due to our rural location, you will need to be able to drive and have your own vehicle.
