We are looking for a passionate and flexible Food Coordinator to join our Mount Claremont team. The role is preparing and cooking nutritional meals for the children in our service. The position is 5 hours a day, 8am-1pm, Monday to Friday.

While you may not be directly working with the children, you must have a warm and friendly nature. It is possible that you will be required to answer a variety of questions including but not limited to; who you are, what you are cooking, and 'But why'.

Relationships are important within our team, as effective teamwork provides stability, job satisfaction and helps us navigate the day successfully. We have events for our team outside work hours such as our end of year expo, staff dinners, bus rallies and even nights away so we can relax and celebrate our successes together.

If this sounds like the position for you, we'd love to hear from you.

  • CPR Courses organised and paid for by head office (course fees and time attended).
  • Strong focus on work-life-balance.
  • Relationship centred environments.
  • Uniform allocations (annual).
