The Role

As a Catering Assistant, you will support the day-to-day operation of our busy catering department, assisting with serving healthy, delicious meals to our staff and students at our Senior School.

Specifically, you will serve and replenish food, undertake basic food preparation, clean working and storage areas, and set up and clean down for events and functions.

Working in line with Health and Safety and Food Safety standards, you will also work as part of a team to ensure catering services are smooth, efficient and co-ordinated.

Please note, this role involves lifting and carrying items of a reasonable weight.

About You

To be considered as a Catering Assistant, you will need:

• The ability to work well as part of a team and on your own initiative
• Good communication and customer service skills
• Strong attention to detail, particularly around cleanliness and hygiene
• A flexible and adaptable approach to work

A food hygiene certificate is an advantage, but not essential, as full training will be provided. Previous catering experience would also be a bonus.

The closing date for this role is 31st July 2026. Please note, we may close this campaign early if we receive sufficient applications to make our shortlist. Apply early to avoid disappointment.
