Are you passionate about food and delivering exceptional service?

A chef or cook helps to lead the kitchen, crafting delicious dishes, with the added benefit of regular hours between 7am and 4pm, Monday to Friday. This role offers a great work-life balance, with only occasional nights or weekends for events or rugby, allowing you to enjoy your evenings and most weekends free.

You'll help craft delicious meals, assist with exciting events, and ensure our kitchen shines.

What's cooking in this role?

  • Work alongside our Head Chef to create stunning menus and delicious dishes
  • Keep the kitchen running smoothly with food prep, production, and stock control
  • Help manage waste and maintain high food safety standards (because we all know burnt toast isn't the only thing we want to avoid)
  • Bring your creativity to the table by helping develop new menu items that leave people coming back for more

The Method For a Chef Extraordinaire:

  • Relevant qualifications and kitchen experience (if you've got the skills, we've got the apron)
  • A true passion for delivering top-notch customer service and a great student experience
  • A strong understanding of food safety and handling (because no one wants a "mystery meat" situation)
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills (we need someone who can handle both the heat of the kitchen and a good laugh)
  • Impeccable organisational skills – multitasking is your middle name
  • Ability to keep your cool under pressure (because that oven's not going to wait)
  • A go-getter attitude with a sprinkle of flexibility and a whole lot of initiative
  • A killer work ethic, a positive vibe, and a team spirit

Special Ingredients We Need:

  • Be ready to act as an Emergency Warden (we'll train you, but you'll feel like a superhero)
  • Food Safety Supervisor – you're the kitchen's safety captain
